Could anybody with a certainty tell me if we have ECF in mathematics? Say, in Q6, instead
Of putting 6 as the velocity, I put 8, and this is in the very initial steps. The question is of 9 marks in total. How many marks
Will I loose? Rest of the methods and everything is correct. Just this part is wrong due to putting in the wrong value (despite it being given in plain sight) But as this part is incorrect, the corresponding values are too.

As far as I know.... they will just deduct one mark for one mistake that u make.... they grade you according to your concepts basically and u blundered with one concept per say so I dont think you will loose more than 1-2 marks... hopefully :)

The last question was pretty new, but not difficult, I think.
Question 5, on the other hand, I had no idea what to do. :confused: Basically wrote gibberish.

I made the mistake of not adding an SI unit (s) for my value of T in the second question (I think?), do you guys think i'll lose a mark for that?

I am pretty sure they only look at the method and the final answer. Don't think they will penalize you, unless your answer is wrong of course.
