GENERAL GUIDELINES/ALGEMENE RIGLYNE

1.   CALCULATIONS/BEREKENINGE

     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 are many relevant symbols and applicable substitutions.
           Geen punte sal toegeken word waar ŉ 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 ŉ fout gedurende substitusie in ŉ korrekte formule begaan word,
           sal ŉ 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
           correct formula/principle is correctly given.
           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 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 ŉ kandidaat met die korrekte formule
           begin en dan die onderwerp van die formule verkeerd verander, sal die 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 has been attempted,
           i.e. substitutions have been made or a numerical answer given.
           Punte word slegs vir ŉ formule toegeken indien ŉ poging tot berekening
           aangewend is, d.w.s. substitusies is gedoen of ŉ 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 formules
           ingestel word en nie vir waardes wat voor ŉ berekening gelys is nie.

     1.9     All calculations, when not specified in the question, must be done to a minimum
             of two decimal places.
             Alle berekenings, wanneer nie in die vraag gespesifiseer word nie, moet tot ŉ
             minimum van 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 ŉ finale antwoord van 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.
     1.11 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 ŉ reeks berekeninge gedoen moet word (bv. ŉ stroombaan-
          diagramvraag) hoef nie noodwendig dieselfde volgorde te hê nie. VOLPUNTE
          sal toegeken word op voorwaarde dat dit ŉ 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.
             Kandidate sal slegs een keer gepenaliseer word vir die herhaaldelike gebruik
             van ŉ verkeerde eenheid in ŉ vraag.
     2.2     Units are only required in the final answer to a calculation.
             Eenhede word slegs in die finale antwoord op ŉ 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 sal slegs vir ŉ antwoord en nie vir ŉ eenheid per se toegeken word nie.
             Kandidate sal 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 are 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 ŉ vermenigvuldigingspunt en nie met ŉ punt
            nie, byvoorbeeld m•s-1. Vir nasiendoeleindes sal m•s-1 en 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 berekeninge 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 of 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 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 vir die daaropvolgende subvraag toegeken.

     4.2    A multistep question in a subquestion: If the candidate has to calculate, for
            example, current in die 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 bv. die
            stroom verkeerd bereken in ŉ eerste stap as gevolg van ŉ substitusiefout,
            verloor 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 in QUESTION 3.1, and QUESTION 3.1 is incorrect, no marks can be
     awarded for QUESTION 3.2. However, if the answer for e.g. QUESTION 3.1 is
     based on a calculation, the motivation for the incorrect answer could be considered.
     ŉ Verkeerde antwoord, indien dit op ŉ konsepsuele fout gebaseer is, kan normaalweg
     nie korrek gemotiveer word nie. Indien ŉ kandidaat gevra word om in VRAAG 3.2 die
     antwoord op VRAAG 3.1 te motiveer en VRAAG 3.1 is verkeerd, kan geen punte vir
     VRAAG 3.2 toegeken word nie. Indien die antwoord op bv. VRAAG 3.1 egter op ŉ
     berekening gebaseer is, kan die motivering vir die verkeerde antwoord in VRAAG 3.2
     oorweeg word.

QUESTION 2/VRAAG 2

2.1     When a resultant/net force acts on an object, the object will accelerate in
        the direction of the force at an acceleration directly proportional to the
        force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. 
        Wanneer ŉ resulterende / netto krag op ŉ voorwerp inwerk, versnel die
        voorwerp in die rigting van die krag teen ŉ 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 ŉ voorwerp inwerk, is gelyk aan die
        tempo van verandering van momentum van die voorwerp in die rigting van
        die resulterende/netto krag.                                                        (2)
