Question Evidence Achievement Merit Excellence

ONE The difference in the amount Correct answer


of energy carried per
(a)
coulomb of charge at two
different points in a circuit.

(b) • As the voltage (energy per 1 point 2 points


charge) is low the current
(rate at which the charge is
delivered) needs to be high.
Or P=IV , P=V2/I
• This is achieved with a low
resistance.

(c) Correct answer

(d) E = V/d = 1000/0.013 = 77000 Vm-1 Calculates without Correct working and
converting cm to m answer.
(d) V m-1 , NC -1 Correct Answer

(e) Electric Potential Energy Correct Answer

(f) ∆EPE = Eqd = Vq = 1000 x 1.6 x 10-19 Tries to answer using One mistake in Correct working

∆EPE = 1.6 x 10-16 J
have lots of sig.
i.e. uses ½ mv2
∆EPE = ∆KE fig.
1.6 x 10-16 = ½ x 9.11 x 10-31 x v2
v2 = 3.51 x 1014
v = 1.9 x 107 ms-1
(g) A negative charge would build up on Negative charge Correct answer
the screen which would repel the build up

TWO R = R1 + R2 = 47 + 480 = 527 Ω Correct answer


(a)

(b) I= V/R = 240/527 = 0.46 A or 0.455A Correct Answer

(c) V = IR = 0.46 x 480 = 219 V Calculates total Correct Working and


power output Answer
P = VI = 219 x .46 = 99 W or 100W
Or Calculates 219V
Or using P = I2 R
Or states P = I2 R
(d) R = R1 + R2 + R3 = 47 + 480 + 480 Correct working and .
answer.
R = 1007 Ω
( correction – criteria
I = V/R = 240/1007 = 0.24 A
2 instead )

The extra resistor in series increases Lower current OR Higher resistance Comprehensive
(e)
total resistance in the circuit. greater resistance means lower current answer – must link
voltage and current
As the voltage supplied is the same
to power.
the current in the circuit is lower.
Power is proportional to voltage
and current thus power output is
lower.

1/Rp = 1/R1 + 1/R2 = 1/480 +1/480 Shows 240 + 47 only. Correct working
(f)
Rp = 240 Ω
RT = 240 + 47 = 287 Ω

I = V/R = 240/287 = 0.84 A Calculates Itotal Correct steps wrong Full working and
(g)
answer answer.
V = IR = 0.84 x 240 = 200 V
P = VI = 200 x 0.84 = 168 W
E = Pt = 168 x 10 x 60 = 100 kJ

THREE 0V Correct answer


(a)

(b) R = V/I = 10/.85 = 11.8 Ω Correct working and


answer
(c) • Bulb = A (1) One correct (1) Two correct (1) Three
• Ohmic resisitor = E correct
• Diode = D

N.B. Question 2(d) has circles on the test paper instead of squares – this is why the counting of marks looks wrong
but is actually correct ☺
