    Dead space is basically the extra space under the protractor etc when measuring. So, if you had to measure, for example as in Paper 6 O/N 05 1c) Υοu ταpe it to the SiDe of the Desκ.

    Naw man, I got 61 in 4 hours and I'm freaking out :( Was 62 as nice as the 2010 one?

    Physics Paper 6 Query.

    Why 10%, I thought that was the accuracy in the Markscheme. Much obliged.

    Gahh.. I have a few questions that I need help with. Firstly, I've read through the thread, but I never found the answer, how would you estimate the volume of air. Secondly, what is dead space in relation to a rule being taped to a bench. Thanks :P

    physics paper-6

    It usually states when they want a line of best fit, however, curves need to be smooth, so points that are far out of the way should be ignored as it is likely that they are inaccurate in comparison to the other readings. Just remember, a curve should be smooth.

    The base should be viewed as the pins may not be vertical, it could also result in an inaccurate placement due to a parallax error.

    physics paper-6

    You have to take experimental error into account, for every question where a yes is required, a no is also acceptable in the markscheme, if you say that they are too different, but I'm afraid, 0.2 is pretty close (:

    Physics Paper 6 Query.

    Hi there, I have a small query about Question 1. c) i) on the O/N 06 Paper. Basically, it gives you a bundle of rods, of which you find the volume for, but then asks you to estimate the volume of the rods themselves without the air gaps. I have no clue how to do this, and would appreciate some...

    Me too (: And yes I'm sure, me and my classmate drew the diagram for her (:

    Well, earlier papers are a LOT harder, so it may be a good idea to practice them as questions may be repeated. I'd say from around 2000-2002.

    URGENT HELP NEEDED ON DRAWING BIO PAPER 6 GRAPHS!

    Just work out your range of values, and see how much space you are given. Chose a scale which is easy to plot ie, assigning a scale of 10 to a small space will make it hard to plot points unless they are multiples. There is no perfect scale, as long as you take up at least half the space, and it...

    Chemistry Revision

    The common apparatus errors are usually that gas is collected in correctly, ie the tube is the right way up and it should be upside down, or that the tube is passing it through water, when it needn't be. Another common error could be heating the wrong thing when a catalyst is involved. It all...

    Always remember: Parallax errors - Avoid by reading at 90 degrees to the measuring instrument. Repeats and take an average. The other precautions and improvements depend on the example, but those two are always applicable if explained correctly.

    Example If you go down to the graph question, and read the key at the beginning, A means accept as a correct response. A smooth curve through most of the points is accepted. Check the right hand side of the table on page 4 I believe. ^^

    URGENT HELP NEEDED ON DRAWING BIO PAPER 6 GRAPHS!

    I have never drawn a curve in biology. I believe however if it says a smooth line graph, it is acceptable to draw a curve. In some markschemes I have seen, curves and point-to-point plotting has been acceptable.
