number 3 * This question assesses a student s ability to show a coherent and logically structured answer with linkages and fullysustained reasoning. Marks are awarded for indicative content and for how the answer is structured and shows lines of reasoning. The following table shows how the marks should be awarded for indicative content. of indicative marking points seen in answer 6 4 5 4 3 3 0 0 of marks awarded for indicative marking points Guidance on how the mark scheme should be applied: The mark for indicative content should be added to the mark for lines of reasoning. For example, an answer with five indicative marking points which is partially structured with some linkages and lines of reasoning scores 4 marks (3 marks for indicative content and mark for partial structure and some linkages and lines of reasoning). If there are no linkages between points, the same five indicative marking points would yield an overall score of 3 marks (3 marks for indicative content and no marks for linkages). 84

3* (continued) Indicative content Sound waves incident upon surfaces within the concert hall will be reflected. Some frequencies will arrive from different directions with a phase difference of (any odd multiple of) π radians () OR path difference is odd number of half wavelengths Destructive superposition/interference will occur, causing the waves with those frequencies to be quieter than others. Other frequencies arrive with a phase difference of zero or (any multiple of) π radians () OR a whole number of wavelengths Constructive superposition/interference will occur, causing waves with those frequencies to be louder than others. Problem arises due to reflections from walls, so use absorbing material on surfaces to reduce reflections. 6 86
3* (continued) Alternative approach based on standing waves: Sound waves incident upon surfaces within the concert hall will be reflected. Reflections from walls set up standing waves (in room) Nodes and antinodes are formed for certain frequencies of sound Nodes are areas of zero/low amplitude so the frequencies of those sound waves will be quieter than others Antinodes are areas of maximum amplitude so the frequencies of these sound waves will be louder than others Problem arises due to reflections from walls, so use absorbing material on surfaces to reduce reflections (Total for Question 3 6 marks) 87
