GUIDELINES FOR MARKING/RIGLYNE VIR NASIEN
This section provides guidelines for the way in which marks will be allocated. The
broad principles must be adhered to in the marking of Physical Sciences tests and
examinations.
Hierdie afdeling verskaf riglyne vir die manier waarop punte toegeken sal word.
Die breë beginsels moet tydens die nasien van Fisiese Wetenskappe toetse en
eksamens gevolg word.
1.1 MARK ALLOCATION/PUNTE TOEKENNING
1.1.1 Calculations/Berekeninge:
o Marks will awarded for: correct formula, correct substitution, correct
answer with unit.
o Punte sal toegeken word vir: korrekte formule, korrekte substitusie,
korrekte antwoord met eenheid.
o No marks will be awarded if an incorrect or inappropriate formula is
used, even though there may be relevant symbols and applicable
substitutions.
o Geen punte sal toegeken word waar ʼn verkeerde of ontoepaslike
formule gebruik word nie, selfs al is daar relevante simbole en
relevante substitusies.
1.1.2 Explanations and interpretations/Verduidelikings en interpretasie:
Allocation of marks to questions requiring interpretation or explanation
e.g. AS 1.4, 2.2, 2.3, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3, will differ and may include the use
of rubrics, checklists, memoranda, etc. In all such answers emphasis
must be placed on scientific concepts relating to the question.
Toekenning van punte by vrae wat interpretasie of verduideliking vereis
bv. AS 1.4, 2.2, 2.3, 3.1, 3.2 en 3.3, sal verskil en mag die gebruik van
rubrieke, kontrolelyste, memoranda, ens. insluit. By al hierdie antwoorde
moet die beklemtoning op die wetenskaplike konsepte, met betrekking tot
die vraag, val.
1.2 FORMULAE AND SUBSTITUTIONS/FORMULES EN SUBSTITUSIE
1.2.1 Mathematical manipulations and change of subjects of appropriate
formulae carry no marks, but if a candidate starts 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 manipulering en verandering van die voorwerp van
toepaslike formules dra geen punte nie, maar as ʼn kandidaat begin met
die korrekte formule en dan die voorwerp van die formule verkeerd
uitwerk, sal punte vir die formule en korrekte substitusie toegeken word.
1.2.2 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 ʼn fout gedurende substitusie in ʼn korrekte formule begaan
word, sal ʼn punt vir die korrekte formule en vir korrekte substitusie
toegeken word, maar geen verdere punte sal toegeken word nie.
1.2.3 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 sal slegs toegeken word vir ʼn formule as ʼn poging aangewend
was om ʼn berekening te doen d.w.s. substitusie was gedoen of ʼn
numeriese antwoord word verskaf.
Downloaded from hlayiso.com
4 PHYSICAL SCIENCES P1 (Memo) (SEPTEMBER 2012)
1.2.4 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
formules ingestel is en nie vir waardes wat voor ʼn berekening gelys is
nie.
1.2.5 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.
1.3 UNITS/EENHEDE
1.3.1 Candidates will only be penalised once for the repeated use of an
incorrect unit within a question or sub-question.
ʼn Kandidaat sal slegs een keer gepenaliseer word vir die herhaaldelike
gebruik van ʼn verkeerde eenheid in ʼn vraag of subvraag.
1.3.2 Units are only required in the final answer to a calculation.
Eenhede word slegs in die finale antwoord tot ʼn vraag verlang.
1.3.3 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 ʼn antwoord en vir ʼn 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
1.3.4 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.
(This instruction only applies to Paper 1).
SI-eenhede moet gebruik word behalwe in sekere gevalle, bv. V.m-1 in
plaas van of N.C-1, en cm•s-1 of km.h-1 in plaas van m•s-1 waar die vraag
dit verlang. (Hierdie instruksie geld slegs by Vraestel 1).
1.4 POSTIVE MARKING/POSITIEWE NASIEN
Positive marking regarding calculations will be followed in the following cases:
Positiewe nasien met betrekking tot berekeninge sal in die volgende gevalle geld:
1.4.1 Sub-question to sub-question: When a certain variable is calculated in
one sub-question (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 sub-
questions.
Subvraag na subvraag: Wanneer ʼn sekere veranderlike in een
subvraag (bv. 3.1) bereken word en dan in ʼn ander vervang moet word
(3.2 of 3.3), bv. Indien die antwoord vir 3.1 verkeerd is en word korrek in
3.2 of 3.3 vervang, word volpunte aan die daaropvolgende subvraag
toegeken.
Downloaded from hlayiso.com
(SEPTEMBER 2012) FISIESE WETENSKAPPE V1 (Memo) 5
1.4.2 A multi-step question in a sub-question: 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.
ʼn Vraag met veelvuldige stappe in ʼn subvraag: Indien ʼn
kandidaat byvoorbeeld, die aantal mol verkeerd bereken in ʼn
eerste stap as gevolg van ʼn substitusiefout, verloor die kandidaat
die punt vir die substitusie sowel as die finale antwoord.
1.4.3 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 ʼn finale antwoord tot ʼn 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.
1.4.4 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 ʼn reeks berekeninge gedoen moet word (bv. ʼn
stroombaan diagram vraag) hoef nie noodwendig altyd dieselfde
orde te volg nie. VOLPUNTE sal toegeken word mits dit ʼn geldige
oplossing tot die probleem is. Maar, enige berekening wat nie die
kandidaat nader aan die antwoord bring as die oorspronklike data,
sal geen punte tel nie.
1.4.5 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.
1.4.6 Normally, if based on a conceptual mistake, an incorrect answer
cannot be correctly motivated. 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 for 3.2 could be considered.
Normaalweg, as dit gebaseer is op ʼn voorstellingsfout, kan ʼn
verkeerde antwoord nie korrek gemotiveer word nie. As die
kandidaat derhalwe gevra word met ʼn vraag in 3.2 om die antwoord
in vraag 3.1 te motiveer, en 3.1 is verkeerd, sal geen punte vir
vraag 3.2 toegeken word nie. Maar, as die antwoord in bv. 3.1
gebaseer is op ʼn berekening, kan die motivering vir die verkeerde
antwoord oorweeg word.

1.4.7 If instructions regarding method of answering are not followed, e.g.
the candidate does a calculation when the instruction was to solve
by construction and measurement, a candidate may forfeit all
the marks for the specific question.
Indien instruksies aangaande metode van beantwoording nie
gevolg word nie, bv. die kandidaat doen ʼn berekening wanneer die
instruksie los op deur konstruksie en meting was, mag die
kandidaat al die punte vir die spesifieke vraag verbeur.
1.4.8 For an error of principle, no marks are awarded (Rule 1) e.g. If
the potential difference is 200 V and resistance is 25 Ω, calculate
the current.
Vir ʼn foutdraendebeginsel, sal geen punte toegeken word nie
(Reël 1) bv. as die potensiaalverskil 200 V en die weerstand 25 Ω
is, bereken die stroom.

4.1 mechanical energy/meganiese energie [12.1.2] (1)
4.2 4.2.1 The speed of the ball at A & B is the same because there is no
external force acting on the ball, the surface is frictionless or
Newton’s first law of motion. [12.3.1]
Die spoed van die bal by A & B is gelyk want daar is geen
eksterne krag wat op die bal inwerk nie, die oppervlak is
wrywingloos of Newton se eerste wet (2)
4.2.2 The ball is moving at a lower speed at B than at A because
the rough surface has an external force which is frictional force
acting on the ball [12.3.2]
Die bal se spoed is laer by B as by A want die oppervlak is grof
en ʼn eksterne krag, wrywing, werk op die bal in (2)

Mechanical energy at A = Mechanical energy at B
Meganiese energie by A = Meganiese energie by B
Investigation 2/ondersoek 2
vA > vB
therefore/daarom EKA ≠ EKB but EPA = EPB
Mechanical energy at A is not equal to mechanical at B because there is
friction and mechanical energy is not conserved. [12.3.2]
Meganiese energie by B is nie gelyk aan meganiese energie by A want
daar is wrywing (4)
4.4 The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that in an

QUESTION 7/VRAAG 7
7.1 Huygen’s principle states that every point in a wave front acts as a
secondary wavelet that spreads out in all directions with the same speed
as the wave. [12.2.1]
Huygens se beginsel verklaar dat elke punt op ʼn golffront reageer soos
ʼn bron van sekondêre golfies wat in alle rigtings met dieselfde spoed as
die golf uitsprei. (2)
7.2 Diffraction pattern B/Diffraksiepatroon B
Because yellow light has a longer wavelength therefore the longer the
-
wavelength the wider the diffraction pattern. Diffraction pattern B is
more spread out than diffraction pattern A. [12.2.3]
Geel lig het ʼn langer golflengte en daarom ʼn breër diffraksie patroon.
Diffraksiepatroon B is meer uitgesprei as diffraksiepatroon A
OR diffraction is directly proportional to wavelength
OF diffraksie is direk eweredig aan golflengte (3)
7.3 Sin Ɵ =m

5 x 10-6
Ɵ = 5,28° [12.1.3] (3)
7.4 The smaller the width of the slit, the wider the diffraction pattern /the
dark bands will be further from the centre of the screen
- Smaller spleet, breër die diffraksiepatroon/die donker bande sal verder
van die uitmekaar wees
because diffraction is inversely proportional to slit width.
want diffraksie is omgekeerd eweredig aan spleetwydte [12.2.2] (2)

8.2 Gamma rays/Gammastrale [12.2.1] (1)
8.3 X-rays have a higher penetrating ability than radio waves because of their
higher frequency. (E α f)/
X-strale het ʼn hoë indringingsvermoë as radiogolwe as gevolg van hul hoë
frekwensie (E α f)
X-rays do not penetrate through lead so the radiologist will be safe from
harmful effects of x-rays that cause cancer.
X-strale kan nie deur lood beweeg nie daarom is die radioloog veilig van
die skadelike effek van x-strale wat kanker kan veroorsaak [12.3.2] (2)
