Question no 1
1 (a) 1
Able to state three types of variable correctly:
.
Example of answer:
Constant variable: substance // initial temperature // supplied energy / time of
heating
Manipulated variable: mass
Responding variable: amount of heat absorbed
2
Able to state two types of variable correctly
3
Able to state one type of variable correctly
(b) (i) 1. Able to state variable and the way to manipulate the variable correctly.
Example: Experiment is repeated by using different masses
-must state word different
ii
(c)
1. Able to state variable and the way to keep constant the variable correctly
Example: The duration of heating process is the same. // All masses of water is
heated in 5 minutes
-must state word same/ fix/ maintain to show constant variable
1. Able to draw a diagram with three criteria given below correctly:
- A functioning diagram
- A labeled diagram
- Appropriate size of the diagram
Diagram consists of
- a beaker with water
- thermometer
- electric heater
- power supply

(c) (i) Able to state the relationship with the correct variable:Example:
1. The higher the mass of weights, the higher the period of oscillation (T2).
2. When the mass of weights increases, the period of oscillation (T2) will
increases too.
3
(ii) Able to show how to determine the the value of T2 on the graph.
- 0.88- 0.92 s2.
(d) Able to state the hypothesis is rejected or not and able to explain it.
- The hypothesis is rejected.
1
- This is because when the mass of weights increases, the period of oscillation
of the spring will increase too.
1
- The mass of weights will influenced the period of oscillation of the spring. 1
