  • 5(a)[1]

    infrared

  • 5(b)(i)[1]

    (both) transverse / electromagnetic / travel in a vacuum / have the same (high) speed (in a vacuum)

  • 5(b)(ii)[1]

    (it / visible light) compared with an e.m. radiation stated by candidate in 5(a) in terms of frequency / wavelength

  • 5(c)(i)[3]

    equipment

    e.g.

    black container, white container, thermometers

    or

    Leslie’s cube and detector

    measurements made

    warm / hot water in container and temperature decreases recorded or time to reach a given temperature / to cool or

    warm / hot water in cube and meter readings recorded

    how a conclusion is reached

    better emitter surface cools quicker

    or

    greater reading from better emitter surface

  • 5(c)(ii)[2]

    any two appropriate quantities

    e.g.

    initial temperature of water

    mass / volume of water

    dimensions / surface area of container

    time of cooling

    mass of container

    shape of container

    smoothness of surface

    or

    surface area of face (of cube)

    distance of detector

    temperature of water at time

    of measurement

    smoothness of surface
