ANSWER

Section B
[12 marks]
1

Diagram 3 shows two opaque cups, A and B, containing different amount of

water. A similar coin is placed at the bottom of each cup.
When the coin is observed from the same position, the image of the coin in cup
A cannot be seen, but the image of the coin in cup B can be seen.

Diagram 3
Based on your observation on the depth of the water and the position of the
images of the coins:
(a)

State one suitable inference

Depth of water affects the position of image
Position of image depends on the depth of water
*Note:
Must have cause without effect
RV influenced by MV
RV affected MV
MV affects RV
[1 mark]

(b)

State one hypothesis that could be investigated.

The more the depth of water, the more the depth of the image // the
higher is the image.

*Note: Must have cause and effect

[1 mark]
(c)

With the use of apparatus such as a tall beaker, pins and other apparatus,
describe an experiment to investigate the hypothesis stated in 3(b)
In your description, state clearly the following;
i.
The aim of the experiment.
To investigate the relationship be
between
tween the depth of water and
apparent depth // real depth and apparent depth
*Note: Relate MV and RV
ii.

The variables in the experiment.

Manipulated variable: Real depth
Responding variable: Apparent depth // Depth of image
* Note: Both must correct
Constant variable: Density of water // Refractive index // Type of
liquid

iii.

The list of apparatus and materials.

Beaker, Water, Pins, Set of retort stand, Metre rule // Diagram

iv.

The arrangement of apparatus.

- State a functional arrangement of the apparatus
*Note: Functional mean experimental can be done or can get a
data.

v.

The procedures of the exp

experiment
eriment which include the method of
controlling the manipulated variable and the method of measuring
the responding variable.
State the method to control manipulated variable

Soalan Ramalan Fizik SPM 2014

Fill beaker with water to a depth of d1 = 10 cm / any number or

symbol/letter
State the method to measure the responding variable
Move the pin outside the beaker to obtain the apparent position of
the pin in the beaker.
Measure the position of the pin from the surface of the water to
the pin.
Repeat the experiment at least 4 times
Repeat the previous steps by increasing the depth of water 15 cm,
20 cm, 25 cm and 30 cm.

vi.

The way to tabulate the data.

Show how the data is tabulated.
*Note: Must have 2 columns
Depth of water, d / cm
10
15
20
25
30

vii.

Apparent depth, h / cm

The way to analyse the data.

Plot a graph of apparent depth against the depth of water / real
depth // Sketch of graph.
Apparent depth/cm

Depth of water/cm

- If use symbol, must mention earlier.

- Accept conclusion, statement of variable related.
