Communicate your personal assessment as indicated in the Learner's Assessment Card.
Personal Assessment on Learner's Level of Performance
Using the symbols below, choose one which best describes your experience in working on each given task. Draw it in the column
for Level of Performance (LP). Be guided by the descriptions below:
-I was able to do/perform the task without any difficulty. The task helped me in understanding the target content/ lesson.
-I was able to do/perform the task. It was quite challenging, but it still helped me in understanding the target content/lesson.
-I was not able to do/perform the task. It was extremely difficult. I need additional enrichment activities to be able to do/perform this
task.

Answer :

1. The correct answer is C. Mechanical energy is always conserved in a closed system, not just kinetic or potential energy alone. This means that the total mechanical energy (kinetic energy + potential energy) remains constant in the absence of external forces like friction. 2. The correct answer is C. The mechanical energy of a system is the sum of kinetic energy and all relevant forms of potential energy. This includes gravitational potential energy and any other potential energy associated with the system. 3. The correct answer is D. Mechanical energy is not conserved when friction is not negligible. Friction can convert mechanical energy into other forms like heat, reducing the total mechanical energy of the system. 4. The correct answer is C. When Kathy's arrow is released from its bow, it directly transforms potential energy (elastic potential energy stored in the bow) into kinetic energy as the arrow moves. 5. The correct answer is D. If mechanical energy is conserved in a system, the energy at any point in time can be in the form of kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, or elastic potential energy. This means all of these forms can exist simultaneously while the total mechanical energy remains constant.
