1 Mark Scheme Q1. (a) B (b) voltmeter symbol connected across battery (c)(i) substitution evaluation 30 give full marks for correct answer, no (W) working (c)(ii) substitution evaluation 4.8 give full marks for correct answer, no (Ω) working (d) (e) An explanation linking any two of the following points greater resistance in the circuit less current (in the circuit) less energy transfer in the coils less voltage across the coils less power generated in the coils Any one from the following points heat will be generated in the resistor it will get hot could burn the rider

2 Q2. (a) (b)(i) (b(ii) (c)(i) (c)(ii) (c)(iii) Answer D a variable resistor connected in parallel with lamp Substitution R = 6.0 / 0.26 Evaluation = 23 point correctly plotted at 2.0, 0.14 to within half a small square smooth curve of best fit connecting all given points within half a small square a description including two of the following: current increases as voltage increases current is not proportional to the pd gradient gets less a suggestion to include: there is still a current (when control is at min position) make the battery last longer Acceptable answers Mark recognisable symbol such as a box with letter V inside or box with the word voltmeter inside it accept voltmeter across both lamp and ammeter An answer which rounds to 23 Give full marks for correct answer no working Judge curve by eye. If more than one line present then ignore any that appear to be erased or deleted. Ignore any part of line which goes beyond given points. If plotted point is incorrect then allow ecf for line Allow reverse argument positive correlation (between them ) graph is not a straight line not in equal steps current does not increase as much (as it gets higher) accept resistance has increased with increase in current for two marks to break the circuit to switch the current off accept flow of electricity/charge/ele ctrons for current battery / energy would be drained /used up/ wasted otherwise accept reverse arguments ignore reference to power / volts

4 Q3. Answer (a)(i) D decrease the resistance of the variable resistor (b)(i) correct symbol for ammeter or voltmeter (seen anywhere) one meter connected in parallel with lamp/variable resistor/supply and one meter in series with lamp both meters correctly connected (ammeter in series and voltmeter in parallel with lamp) (b)(ii) substitution evaluation 4 (V) (c) An explanation linking the following points Heat/thermal energy is produced In the lamp/bulb / variable resistor / connecting wires (d) substitution evaluation 2 (W) Acceptable answers Ignore gaps, lines through symbols and wire connected to side of variable resistor Symbols do not have to be correct for this mark voltmeter connected across both components is same as voltmeter connected across supply Symbols do not have to be correct for this mark any shape, labelled ammeter, in series with lamp AND any shape, labelled voltmeter, in parallel with lamp gains marking points 2 and 3 bald 4.0 x 10 n gains 1 mark eg bald 40 or 0.4 = 1 mark (BOD for correct substitution) give full marks for correct numerical answer, 4 (V) even if no working Ignore sound (energy) and 'it is inefficient' Accept 'it' as meaning the lamp Eg 'it also produces heat' gains both marks Idea that (some) energy is wasted/lost in the lamp/variable resistor/wires gains maximum of 1 mark bald 2.0 x 10 n gains 1 mark eg bald 20 or 0.2 = 1 mark (BOD for correct substitution) give full marks for correct numerical answer, 2 Mark (3)

5 (W) no working

6 Q4. Answer Acceptable answers Mark (a)(i) D variable resistor (a)(ii) B in parallel with the lamp (a)(iii) A description including resistance changed (b)(i) (b)(ii ) reduced/decreased/l owered OR voltage/p.d /EMF (of supply) changed increased /turned up/higher both points correct curve of best fit judged by eye remove (variable) resistor /component X number of batteries/number of cells add another cell/battery/battery pack/power pack/power supply allow + / - half square Must pass through zero and two other points. 5 th point can be either (8.0,0.42) or (8.0, 0.44) straight line of best fit through origin tolerance between lines A and B shown on the diagram (c) substitution 10/0.44 or 250/11 evaluation 23 (ohms) (d)(i) an explanation linking two of the 5 th point can be either (8.0,0.42) or (8.0, 0.44) give full marks for correct answer, no working 22.7(ohms),22.73 (ohms), 22.72(ohms) Ignore excessive decimal places. electricity
