1 The language in exam papers You must read exam questions carefully, and answer only what they ask. You will get no marks for writing a really good answer to the wrong question! Here are some terms used in exam papers, and their meanings, with examples. Space has been left on each page so you can print and annotate them in whatever way you find useful.

2 1 Define means give the precise meaning of a word, phrase, or physical quantity. Example: Define the term isotopes. Answer: An isotope is a different version of the same element. It has the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons in the nucleus.

3 State what you understand by/what is meant by is similar to Define. Example: State what is meant by the term weight. Answer: Weight is the gravitational force upon an object. It is calculated as the product of its mass and the gravitational field strength.

4 3 State means give a specific name, value, or other brief answer without explanation or calculation. State and Name are very similar instructions. Example: State the name given to the random motion of dust particles when bombarded by air molecules. Answer: Brownian motion

5 4 List means give a sequence of names or other brief answers with no explanation. Example: List the ferromagnetic elements. Answer: Iron (Fe), Cobalt (Co), and Nickel (Ni).

6 5 Explain means give a detailed account of causes, reasons, or mechanisms. Example: Explain why smoke particles undergo small random movements when viewed under a microscope. Answer: Fast moving air molecules are randomly colliding with the smoke particles, exerting forces on the particles which cause them to move.

7 6 Describe means give a detailed account. You could include a diagram if that is appropriate. Example: Describe the nature of an image produced by a plane mirror. Answer: The image is virtual, upright, located behind the mirror at the same distance from the mirror surface as the object is to the mirror, and laterally inverted.

8 7 Describe and explain means give a detailed account, including causes, reasons, or mechanisms. Example: Describe and explain what happens when an iron nail comes close to a magnet. Answer: The iron nail will be attracted to the magnet and, in the absence of any other forces, the nail will become attached to the magnet. The magnet induces magnetism in the iron nail. The induced pole nearest the magnet will have the opposite pole at the end of the magnet. The attraction between unlike poles holds the nail to the magnet.

9 8 Suggest means propose a hypothesis or other possible answer. Example: An IGCSE student obtains a value of 6500 J/(kg C) for the specific heat capacity of water, using an electrical method. Suggest a reason why her value is too high compared with the accepted value of 4186 J/(kg C). Answer: Some of the heat, assumed to be transferred to the water, was lost to the environment.

10 9 Calculate means find a numerical answer, showing the relevant stages in your working (unless you are instructed not to do so). The question will provide the data you need to complete the calculation. Example: Calculate the extension of a spring, with a spring constant of 100 N/m, when 0.5 kg is attached to it. Assume that g = 10 N/kg. Answer: Using Hooke s Law: F = kx x = F k = mg k = = 0.05 m = 5 cm

11 10 Find means work out. You usually have to do a calculation. Example: Find the resistance of three lamps, each with a resistance of 9 Ω when they are connected in parallel. Answer: 3 Ω ( 1 R = 1 T R R + 1 R = = 1 3, so R = 3 Ω) T

12 11 Determine same as Find. It means to find the only possible answer. Example: Determine the distance covered by a car that accelerates uniformly from rest to 1 m/s in 10 s. Answer: 60 m (Distance covered is the area under a speed-time graph. D = 1 b h = )

13 1 Estimate means find an approximate value for an unknown quantity. You may need to do a rough calculation. You should use the term about, approximately, or roughly, in your answer. Example: The table below shows how the activity of a radioactive sample changes with time. Estimate the half-life of the sample. Answer: time / hours activity / counts per second Approximately 8 hours.

14 13 Sketch means draw freehand. Your sketch can be quite rough, but make sure you show the key points correctly. Example: Sketch the variation of the output current of an AC generator with time. Answer: Current, I / A Time/s

15 14 Outline means give a brief account or summary. Example: Outline an experiment to determine the resistance of a lamp. Answer: Connect a cell, an ammeter, and cell in series using insulated wires. Connect voltmeter across the lamp. Record the current through the lamp and the potential difference across the lamp. The resistance of the lamp is given by the potential difference across the lamp divided by the current through the lamp.

16 15 Deduce means to reach a conclusion from the information given. You should include a sentence to support your answer where you explain your reasoning, or refer to a principle or law that you have learnt. Example: Deduce the background radiation from the data in the table below. Time (mins) Count rate/counts per second Answer: 8 counts/sec. The count rate stops falling in the last two data points, so this is the level of background radiation.
