Tag the questions with any skills you have. Your dashboard will track each student's mastery of each skill.
During a traditional Bayanihan, a community lifts and carries a wooden nipa hut across a village. Which conditionmust be met for the hut to move at a constant velocity without tilting or rotating?
When a fully loaded passenger jeepney suddenly steps on the brakes, standing passengers lurch forward aggressively. Which physical law best explains this observation?
A farmer uses a carabao to pull a heavy wooden cart filled with harvested palay. According to Newton's Third Law, if the carabao exerts a forward force on the cart, what is the equal and opposite reaction force?
Cooking traditional chicken adobo in a pressure cooker tenderizes meat much faster than in an open pot. Why does increasing pressure inside the cooker accelerate cooking?
In preparing Halo-Halo, finely shaved ice melts slowly when packed tightly in a tall glass cup with sweetened milk. What thermodynamic property causes shaved ice to absorb significant thermal energy before changing state into liquid water?
Filipino children fly traditional bamboo kites (saranggola) during summer. What aerodynamic mechanism primarily generates the upward lift required to keep the kite aloft in steady wind?
In a game of Sipa or Sepak Takraw, a player kicks a woven rattan ball into a high arc across the net. Ignoring air resistance, which statement correctly describes the ball's motion at its peak height?
A street vendor (magtataho or fishball vendor) finds it harder to start pushing a heavy food cart from rest than to keep it moving once in motion. Why is this the case?
When harvesting palay using a traditional curved sickle (gamat or lingkao), a farmer applies force at the handle toslice through dense rice stalks easily. What physical principle enhances cutting effectiveness?
In coastal regions like Cebu or Pangasinan, fresh fish is salted and laid out under the direct sun to produce dried fish (daing / tuyo). Which mode of heat transfer directly brings solar energy across space to heat the fish?
When spearfishing in clear shallow waters around Palawan, a local fisherman aims slightly below the apparentposition of the fish. Which light phenomenon explains why the fish appears higher than its actual depth?
Speed is defined mathematically as:
A runner completes one full lap around a 400-meter circular track. What are the total distance and totaldisplacement?
What does a speedometer in a car measure?
A person walks 3 meters forward and then 2 meters backward along a straight line. What is the netdisplacement?
Average velocity is calculated using which formula?
Which unit is the standard SI unit for both speed and velocity?
An object moves +10 m along the x-axis, then -10 m along the x-axis. What is the total distance traveled?
Which of the following best describes an object moving with zero average velocity over a given timeinterval?
Sprinter Motion Analysis: A sprinter accelerates down a straight track covering 60 meters in 6.2 seconds,then turns around and walks backward 10 meters toward the starting blocks in 3.8 seconds. What is thesprinter’s average speed for the entire 10-second interval? (3points)
Assembly Line Robotics: An automated assembly robot moves a component along a linear rail. It moves+2.4 m, then reverses direction by -3.8 m, and finally moves +1.0 m. If the initial position was x0 = 0 m, what isthe final displacement and total distance traveled by the component?
