 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 the 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.
