MARKING SCHEME
1. Define physics. (1mk)
It is a study of matter and its relation to energy.

2. Explain the relationship between physics and mathematics. (1mk)


Many concepts in physics are expressed mathematically.

3. State three basic rules in a laboratory relating to electricity. (3mks)


- A location of electricity switches, firefighting equipment and first Aid
kits must be noted.
- Ensure that all electrical switches are turned off.
- Never plug in foreign objects into electrical sockets since one can
damage the socket or risk an electrocution.
- Never touch any electrical socket or naked wires with wet hands.
