PAPER 1 (Knowledge, understanding and application) 1. 2. 3. 4. Delete all the wrong options then choose For difficult questions: Decide the correct concept first Calculation questions: Refer to the formulas given One step calculation only Note: Remember! Blacken each finished answer immediately PAPER 2 (Knowledge, understanding and application) Question No.1-No.4 Decide on the correct concept first. Write the facts/concept/formula that is connected to the related sub topic (related to the question) Understand the tasks Refer to the marks stated- one point for one mark. Answer in simple words but meaningful related to physics concept. Use correct terminology Understanding and qualitative application explain step by step(imaging the marker does not know the physics) Calculation: Choose & Write the relevant formula 1 Mark Substitute the values correctly Answer with correct unit

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Conceptualising Questions No.5, No.6 and No.9 or No.10 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Every items starting with stimulus (situation). Stimulus or situation can be in diagram, table, chart or graph. Look at the diagram, table, and chart or graph carefully. State only what is in the diagram, table, chart or graph Understand the tasks: Comparison :State the similarities and differences(if there is any) Differences: State characteristics that are different Similarities : State the same characteristics Relationship : directly proportional/ inversely proportional/ When . increases, Increases/decreased. Name the law/principle/concept involved.

Problem Solving Questions No. 7 and No.9 or No.10 Structured Question: 1. 2. 3. Very sure of the concept/ understand the working principle of apparatus and its function. Understand the questions/follow the instructions given. State the methods and reasons / explanations.

Essay type question: Open type question 1. Understand the problem given 2. State the method/suggestion/ design / modification to solve the problems 3. State the explanation for the each method /suggestion/ design (Suggestion: use table) method/suggestion/ design/modification 5 Explanation/reason 5

Guided type Question- usually working principle of apparatus 1. 2. 3. Follow the instruction in the question. Answer can be in the form of diagram or essay. State the method/ways and reasons.

Common mistakes: 1. 2. 3. Suggestion of problem solving does not based on relevant physical concept Give wrong/irrelevant explanation/reason Give redundant/overlap suggestion/method

5
Making Decision (Questions No. 8 and No.11 or No.12) Structured: 1. Guided decision making 2. Follow the instructions in the questions 3. Justify your answer with reasons

Essay: 1. Question will state the characteristics in the form of diagram or table Study the characteristics carefully 2. Choose the suitable characteristics according to the need of the question. Use the word low or high 3 Explain the chosen characteristics (Suggestion- table form) Characteristic 4 4. 5. 6. Make a ranking based on chosen characteristics Make a justification State the reason

Explanation/ reason 4

Common mistakes 1. 2. 3. Elaborate all characteristics Rewrite the value of characteristic given without stating low or high Does not state all characteristics/ reasons after making a justification

6 TIPS FOR PAPER 2 Section B (Essay) 1. 2.

To answer the question of definition of the terms, concepts, principles or Physics law need to state in a sentence. The answer in form of formula is not acceptable.

To answer the questions of comparison, state the similarities and differences between the given diagrams. Use diagrams or graphs whenever necessary to make the points clearer. Pay attention to the marks allocated. The marks usually indicate the number of points required. Answer in table form for suggested modifications. e.g

3. 4. 5.

Modifications

Explanation

Section C (Essay) 1. To answer question explain the suitability of each characteristics and determine the most suitable . ., identify 4 different characteristics from the given diagrams or table. The answer must be in table form.

Characteristic

Reason

[ ] is chosen.

Useful Physics Terminologies for Paper 2 JUJ Pahang

No. 1 Density

TERM

VALUE Low / small High / large Small

MEANING Lighter / easy carry/not heavy Heavier / more compact Spring is soft / easy to stretch Spring is stiff / difficult to stretch Easily heated up , short time to heat up

Spring constant (k) Large / big Low / small Need less heat to raise temperature

Specific Heat Capacity (c) More difficult to heat up, takes more time to heat up High / large Need more heat to raise temperature, use more fuel Need less heat to melt / vaporise Low / small Time to melt / vaporise is shorter

Specific Latent Heat (l) Need more heat to melt / vaporise High / large Time to melt / vaporise is longer
Decays faster Short Reactivity decreases faster Decays slowly Long Reactivity decreases slowly Radioactivity lasts longer

Half-life

Low Melting point / 7 Freezing point High

Melts at low temperature / Freezes at low temperature. Starts melting earlier / Starts freezing later Melts at higher temperature / Freezes at higher temperature. Starts melting latter / Starts freezing earlier

Rigidity

Low

Changes shape easily when acted upon by external force

8
Does not change shape easily when acted upon by external force Breaks easily / breaks under small external force Difficult to break / Needs a large force to break Does not rust easily / quickly Rust easily / quickly Starts boiling at lower temperature Starts boiling earlier Slower to begin condensation Starts boiling at higher temperature Starts boiling latter Faster to begin condensation Substance that refracts light less Substance that refracts light more Easier for total internal reflection to occur Difficult for total internal reflection to occur Large / long focal length Refract light less Short focal length Refract light more Higher power Lower power Short wavelength High penetration power Low frequency Low penetration power High pitch Short wavelength Spreads out less Having lower resistance compared to wires of the same thickness and length. Having higher resistance compared to wires of the same thickness and length. Supply a larger current through the same resistance. Uses more energy per second Needs a smaller current to produce a fixed amount of power.
