0 views 0 downloads 0 shares 3 October 2026

This one-page Senior 1 physics holiday task uses a fictionalised planning scenario involving water for handwashing at a meeting during the coronavirus pandemic. Learners use the supplied length, width and height of a rectangular metallic tank to determine its full capacity. They must write a letter explaining the relevant physical quantity, its meaning, suitable units and instruments used to measure small quantities in a physics laboratory. The activity connects measurement and volume calculations with practical communication, requiring a final answer in a unit understandable to a water supplier. The sheet is labelled S.1–2020.
