The College Board is a not-for-rofit membershi association whose mission is to connect students to college success and oortunity. Founded in 19, the association is comosed of more than 4,5 schools, colleges, universities, and other educational organizations. Each year, the College Board serves over three million students and their arents, 3, high schools, and 3,5 colleges through major rograms and services in college admissions, guidance, assessment, financial aid, enrollment, and teaching and learning. Among its best-known rograms are the SAT, the PSAT/NMSQT, and the Advanced Placement Program (AP ). The College Board is committed to the rinciles of excellence and equity, and that commitment is embodied in all of its rograms, services, activities, and concerns.

2 AP PHYSICS C ELECTRICITY & MAGNETISM 4 SCORING GUIDELINES General Notes about 4 AP Physics Scoring Guidelines 1. The solutions contain the most common method(s) of solving the free-resonse questions, and the allocation of oints for these solutions. Other methods of solution also receive aroriate credit for correct work.. Generally, double enalty for errors is avoided. For examle, if an incorrect answer to art (a) is correctly substituted into an otherwise correct solution to art (b), full credit will usually be awarded. One excetion to this may be cases when the numerical answer to a later art should be easily recognized as wrong, e.g. a seed faster than the seed of light in vacuum. 3. Imlicit statements of concets normally receive credit. For examle, if use of the equation exressing a articular concet is worth one oint, and a student s solution contains the alication of that equation to the roblem but the student does not write the basic equation, the oint is still awarded. 4. The scoring guidelines tyically show numerical results using the value 1 m s is of course also accetable. g = 9.8 m s, but use of 5. Numerical answers that differ from the ublished answer due to differences in rounding throughout the question tyically receive full credit. The excetion is usually when rounding makes a difference in obtaining a reasonable answer. For examle, suose a solution requires subtracting two numbers that should have five significant figures and that differ starting with the fourth digit (e.g..95 and.78). Rounding to three digits will lose the accuracy required to determine the difference in the numbers, and some credit may be lost. Coyright 4 by College Entrance Examination Board.

Therefore, all the voltage dro occurs across resistor R. For the correct answer, with units V = V R C = (b) From the grah, the maximum voltage across the caacitor (and thus also R 1 ), is 1 V. The remaining voltage dro occurs across R. V = V -1 V R For the correct answer, with units V = 8 V R (c) 3 oints A long time after the switch is closed, I =. For any indication that I R1 R Using Ohm s law to calculate the current in R 1 : 3 IR = VR R1 = ( 1 V) ( 15 kw) =.8 1 A 1 1 Using Ohm s law to calculate R : R R C = I -3 ( ) ( ) R = V I = 8 V.8 1 A For the correct numerical answer For the correct units R = 1 kw NOTE: There was a discreancy in this question between information in the grah and the circuit diagram. The value of the time constant as shown in the grah was about a factor of ten too large when comared to the value determined from the information in the diagram. Determination of R by equating the exression for the time constant in terms of resistance and caacitance to the time constant from the grah yields a negative resistance. Since it was not the fault of the students that the correct analysis yielded a negative value of resistance, full credit could be earned for this method.

The time constant of the grah was not evaluated. Coyright 4 by College Entrance Examination Board. All rights reserved. 7

8 AP PHYSICS C ELECTRICITY & MAGNETISM 4 SCORING GUIDELINES (f) 3 oints Question (continued) Distribution of oints For indicating that the energy would be greater For a correct and comlete exlanation For examle: Consider the circuit a long time after the switch is closed, when there is no current in the caacitor. If R is relaced with a smaller resistance, then the total resistance decreases. This results in a larger current through the resistors. Therefore, the voltage across R 1, and thus across the caacitor, increases. Since U = 1 CV, energy increases. One of the two exlanation oints could be earned for an incomlete but correct exlanation. oints Coyright 4 by College Entrance Examination Board. All rights reserved. 8

9 AP PHYSICS C ELECTRICITY & MAGNETISM 4 SCORING GUIDELINES Question 3 15 oints total Distribution of oints (a) 4 oints The magnetic field from the wire with current I is given by: mi B = (this equation can be remembered or derived from Amere s law) r Using the equation for the flux: f = Ú Bi d A m For correctly including the dimension 4 of the loo when re-exressing the area integral as an integral over r da = 4 dr For the correct limits on the integral f m 4 4 m m I I dr = Ú 4 dr = r Ú r For correctly erforming the integration f m 4 I m m I = ln r = ln 4 ln For the correct answer mi fm = ln 4 ( - ) (b) 3 oints For correctly indicating that the induced current is counterclockwise For a comlete correct exlanation For examle: The decreasing current means that the magnetic field, which oints out of the lane of the age, is decreasing in magnitude. Using Lenz s law, the induced current thus needs to create a field to counteract this change. The current must therefore be counterclockwise to create a field directed out of the age oints Only one oint was awarded for incomlete exlanations, such as merely saying that Lenz s law or the right-hand rule justifies the answer.
