GENERAL GUIDELINES
1. CALCULATIONS
1.1 Marks will be awarded for: correct formula, correct substitution, correct
answer with unit.
Punte sal toegeken word vir: korrekte formule, korrekte substitusie, korrekte
antwoord met eenheid.
1.2 No marks will be awarded if an incorrect or inappropriate formula is used,
even though there may be relevant symbols and applicable substitutions.
Geen punte sal toegeken word waar 'n verkeerde of ontoepaslike formule
gebruik word nie, selfs al is daar relevante simbole en relevante substitusies.
1.3 When an error is made during substitution into a correct formula, a mark
will be awarded for the correct formula and for the correct substitutions, but
no further marks will be given.
Wanneer 'n fout gedurende substitusie in 'n korrekte formule begaan word, sal
'n punt vir die korrekte formule en vir korrekte substitusies toegeken word, maar
geen verdere punte sal toegeken word nie.
1.4 If no formula is given, but all substitutions are correct, a candidate will
forfeit one mark.
Indien geen formule gegee is nie, maar al die substitusies is korrek, verloor die
kandidaat een punt.
1.5 No penalisation if zero substitutions are omitted in calculations where
formula/principle is given correctly.
Geen penalisering indien nulwaardes nie getoon word nie in berekeninge waar
die formule/beginsel korrek gegee is nie.
1.6 Mathematical manipulations and change of subject of appropriate formulae
carry no marks, but if a candidate starts off with the correct formula and then
changes the subject of the formula incorrectly, marks will be awarded for the
formula and the correct substitutions. The mark for the incorrect numerical
answer is forfeited.
Wiskundige manipulasies en verandering van die onderwerp van toepaslike
formules tel geen punte nie, maar indien 'n kandidaat met die korrekte formule
begin en dan die onderwerp van die formule verkeerd verander, sal punte vir die
formule en korrekte substitusies toegeken word. Die punt vir die verkeerde
numeriese antwoord word verbeur.
1.7 Marks are only awarded for a formula if a calculation had been attempted.
i.e. substitutions have been made or a numerical answer given.
Punte word slegs vir 'n formule toegeken indien 'n poging tot 'n berekening
aangewend is, d.w.s. substitusies is gedoen of 'n numeriese antwoord is gegee.
1.8 Marks can only be allocated for substitutions when values are substituted into
formulae and not when listed before a calculation starts.
Punte kan slegs toegeken word vir substitusies wanneer waardes in formule
ingestel is en nie vir waardes wat voor 'n berekening genoem is nie.
Physical Sciences P1/Fisiese Wetenskappe V1 3 September 2016
NSC/
NSS
1.9 All calculations, when not specified in the question, must be done to two
decimal places.
Alle berekenings, wanneer nie in die vraag gespesifiseer word nie, moet tot twee
desimale plekke gedoen word.
1.10 If a final answer to a calculation is correct, full marks will not automatically be
awarded. Markers will always ensure that the correct/appropriate formula is
used and that workings, including substitutions, are correct.
Indien 'n finale antwoord tot 'n berekening korrek is, sal volpunte nie outomaties
toegeken word nie. Nasieners sal altyd verseker dat die korrekte/toepaslike
formule gebruik word en dat bewerkings, insluitende substitusies korrek is.
1.11 Questions where a series of calculations have to be made (e.g. a circuit
diagram question) do not necessarily always have to follow the same order.
FULL MARKS will be awarded provided it is a valid solution to the problem.
However, any calculation that will not bring the candidate closer to the answer
than the original data, will not count any marks.
Vrae waar 'n reeks berekenings gedoen moet word (bv. 'n stroomdiagramvraag)
hoef nie noodwendig dieselfde volgorde te hê nie. VOLPUNTE sal toegeken word
op voorwaarde dat dit 'n geldige oplossing vir die probleem is. Enige berekening
wat egter nie die kandidaat nader aan die antwoord as die oorspronklike data bring
nie, sal geen punte tel nie.
2. UNITS/EENHEDE
2.1 Candidates will only be penalised once for the repeated use of an incorrect
unit within a question or subquestion.
'n Kandidate sal slegs een keer gepenaliseer word vir die herhaaldelike gebruik
van 'n verkeerde eenheid in 'n vraag of subvraag.
2.2 Units are only required in the final answer to a calculation.
Eenhede word slegs in die finale antwoord tot 'n vraag verlang.
2.3 Marks are only awarded for an answer, and not for a unit per se. Candidates
will therefore forfeit the mark allocated for the answer in each of the following
situations:
- Correct answer + wrong unit
- Wrong answer + correct unit
- Correct answer + no unit
Punte word slegs vir 'n antwoord en nie vir 'n eenheid per se toegeken nie.
Kandidate sal derhalwe die punt vir die antwoord in die volgende gevalle verbeur:
- Korrekte antwoord + verkeerde eenheid
- Verkeerde antwoord + korrekte eenheid
- Korrekte antwoord + geen eenheid
2.4 SI units must be used except in certain cases, e.g. V·m-1 instead of N·C-1, and
cm·s-1 or km·h-1 instead of m·s-1 where the question warrants this.
SI-eenhede moet gebruik word, behalwe in sekere gevalle, bv. V∙m-1 in plaas van
N∙C-1, en cm∙s-1 of km∙h-1 in plaas van m∙s-1 waar die vraag dit regverdig.

3. GENERAL/ALGEMEEN
3.1 If one answer or calculation is required, but two given by the candidate, only
the first one will be marked, irrespective of which one is correct. If two
answers are required, only the first two will be marked, etc.
Indien een antwoord of berekening verlang word, maar twee word deur die
kandidaat gegee, sal slegs die eerste een nagesien word, ongeag watter een
korrek is. Indien twee antwoorde verlang word, sal slegs die eerste twee nagesien
word, ens.
3.2 For marking purposes, alternative symbols (s,u,t, etc.) will also be accepted.
Vir nasiendoeleindes sal alternatiewe simbole (s, u, t, ens.) ook aanvaar word.
3.3 Separate compound units with a multiplication dot, not a full stop, for
example, m·s-1. For marking purposes m.s-1 and m/s will also be accepted.
Skei saamgestelde eenhede met 'n vermenigvuldigpunt en nie met 'n punt nie,
byvoorbeeld, m·s-1. Vir nasiendoeleindes sal m.s-1 em m/s ook aanvaar word.
4. POSITIVE MARKING/POSITIEWE NASIEN
Positive marking regarding calculations will be followed in the following cases:
Positiewe nasien met betrekking tot berekenings sal in die volgende gevalle geld:
4.1 Subquestion to subquestion: When a certain variable is calculated in one
subquestion (e.g. 3.1) and needs to be substituted in another (3.2 or 3.3), e.g.
if the answer for 3.1 is incorrect and is substituted correctly in 3.2 or 3.3, full
marks are to be awarded for the subsequent subquestions.
Subvraag na subvraag: Wanneer 'n sekere veranderlike in een subvraag (bv.
3.1) bereken word en dan in 'n ander vervang moet word (3.2 of 3.3), bv. indien die
antwoord vir 3.1 verkeerd is en korrek in 3.2 of 3.3 vervang word, word volpunte
aan die daaropvolgende subvraag toegeken.
4.2 A multistep question in a subquestion: If the candidate has to calculate, for
example, current in the first step and gets it wrong due to a substitution error,
the mark for the substitution and the final answer will be forfeited.
'n Vraag met veelvuldige stappe in 'n subvraag: Indien 'n kandidaat
byvoorbeeld, die stroom verkeerd bereken in 'n eerste stap as gevolg van 'n
substitusiefout, verbeur die kandidaat die punt vir die substitusie sowel as die finale
antwoord.
5. NEGATIVE MARKING/NEGATIEWE NASIEN
Normally an incorrect answer cannot be correctly motivated if based on a
conceptual mistake. If the candidate is therefore required to motivate in
question 3.2 the answer given to question 3.1, and 3.1 is incorrect, no marks
can be awarded for question 3.2. However, if the answer for e.g. 3.1. is based
on a calculation, the motivation for the incorrect answer in 3.2 could be
considered.
'n Verkeerde antwoord, indien dit op 'n konsepsuele fout gebaseer is, kan
normaalweg nie korrek gemotiveer word nie. Indien 'n kandidaat gevra word om in
vraag 3.2 die antwoord op vraag 3.1 te motiveer en 3.1 is verkeerd, kan geen
punte vir vraag 3.2 toegeken word nie. Indien die antwoord op bv. 3.1 egter op 'n
berekening gebaseer is, kan die motivering vir die verkeerde antwoord in 3.2
oorweeg word.

Wanneer 'n resulterende/netto krag op 'n voorwerp inwerk, versnel die voorwerp in
die rigting van die krag teen 'n versnelling direk eweredig aan die krag en
omgekeerd eweredig aan die massa van die voorwerp.
OR/OF
The resultant/net force acting on an object is equal to the rate of change of
momentum of the object in the direction of the resultant/net force. /
Die resulterende/netto krag wat op 'n voorwerp inwerk, is gelyk aan die tempo van
verandering van momentum van die voorwerp in die rigting van die
resulterende/netto krag.
