Physics — Up to $40/hr

Tier: STEM

Physics subcontractors review AI-generated answers across classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, optics, and modern physics. Models confidently mix correct formulas with wrong unit handling, get the magnitude right and the sign wrong, or apply a theorem outside its valid regime. We test for the disposition that catches all three.

About the specialty

Physics review work pays at the STEM tier and demands sharp judgement on units, signs, and the boundary conditions where a model's chosen approach stops being valid. The most common model failure isn't getting a formula wrong — it's applying the right formula in the wrong regime.

Topics covered in the test

The Cognition Test for Physics draws from a 150-question bank covering mechanics, electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics, waves and optics, and selected topics in modern physics.

Difficulty mix

10 easy / 20 medium / 10 hard in the domain section. Behavioural section unweighted by difficulty.

Sample question topics

Unit-tracking through multi-step problems; sign-convention checks in electromagnetism; identifying when a model has applied a non-relativistic formula to a relativistic regime; energy-conservation sanity checks.

What we test for

Regime awareness over rote formula recall. The hardest model errors are the ones where the formula is right but the situation isn't one where that formula applies.
