1.2 D
1.3 B
1.4 C
1.5 C [10]
QUESTION 2
2.1 NEGATIVE MARKING
TRANSVERSE
The disturbance of the particles of the medium are perpendicular to the
direction of propagation. (3)
2.2 P (1)
2.3 2.3.1 Wavelength = 100 mm = 10 cm = 0,1 m (1)
2.3.2 T = 1,5 s (1)
2.3.3 f = 1 / T = 1 / 1,5 = 0,67 Hz
v = f x wavelength
v = (0,67) (0,1)
v = 0,067 m·s-1 (3)
[9]
QUESTION 3
3.1 150 m + 25 m = 175 m (1)
3.2 ∆x = 125 m east (1)
3.3 3.3.1 Displacement is the change in position of the object (2)
3.3.2 Physical quantity that has magnitude and direction (2)
3.4 Marking grid for scale drawing
5 cm 1 cm
Criteria Mark

QUESTION 5
5.1 The energy that an object has due to its vertical height above the surface
of the earth. (2)
5.2 Ep = mgh
Ep = 1 (9,8) 35
Ep = 343 J (3)
5.3 In a closed/isolated system, the total mechanical energy remains constant/
is conserved (2)
5.4 Emec (x) = Emec (y)
(Ep + Ek) x = (Ep + Ek) y
(mgh + ½ mv2) x = (mgh + ½ mv2) y
343 + 0 = 0 + ½ (1) v2
v = 26,19 m.s-1

It has a positive charge. (3)
6.2 6.2.1 Every charge in the universe is an integer multiple of the
elementary charge. (2)
6.2.2 Qnew = 𝑄𝑛𝑒𝑡

Qnew = (9 x 10-9 + 0) / 2
Qnew = 4,5 x 10-9 C (3)
6.2.3 n = ∆𝑄
𝑒
n = (4,5 x 10-9 - 0) / 1,6 x 10-19
n = 2,8125 x 1010 electrons
OR
∆𝑄
n= 𝑒
n = (4,5 x 10-9 - 9 x 10-9) / -1,6 x 10-19
