Answer one question on the separate A3 drawing paper provided.
1 Design Communication
Fig, 1 shows two types of chimney.
Fig. 1
A template on a piece of card for a device that will prevent raindrops from entering
one of the chimneys are required.
(a) (i) State one other important specification for the device. [1]
(ii) Give a reason why the specification in (a) (i) is important. [2]
(b) (i) Use sketches and notes to propose two ideas of possible designs for your
device. [6]
(ii) Select one of the ideas to be developed into a final design.
Give a reason for your choice. [2]
(c) Using a suitable method, draw a presentation of your final design. Your drawing
should show the major design detail, the edge pattern and the main dimensions. [12]
(d) Use a flow chart to show three procedures required to make the device. [5]
(e) Describe a test to determine if the device satisfies the specification stated in (a)
(i). [2]

2 Resistant Materials
Normal wear and tear, combined with some very bad roads, lead to vehicles
sometimes breaking down as depicted in the clip art in Fig. 2.
Due to the vastness of the country, it is in most cases not possible to obtain the
services of a tow-in truck.
Fig. 2
A device that will enable a car to be towed is required.
The device should be
• easy to make
• very reliable
• easy to operate.
(a) (i) State one other important specification for the device. [1]
(ii) Give one reason why the specification in (a) (i) is important. [2]
(b) (i) Use sketches and notes to propose two ideas for such a device [6]
(ii) Select one idea from (b) (i) for your final design.
Give a reason for your choice. [2]
(c) Using a suitable method, draw a presentation of your final design. Your drawing
should show the major detail and dimensions. [13]
(d) (i) List one suitable material for your design. [1]
(ii) Describe why the material in (d) (i) is suitable for your design . [2]
(e) Describe how to test if the completed design satisfies the specification stated in
(a) (i). [3]

3 Technology
A broken down car sometimes do not have lights working to alert other road users.
This could cause accidents that could lead to lives lost.
You are provided with a piece of aluminium plate, fitted with two orange lights, as
shown in Fig. 3.
Fig. 3
A wiring system for this portable lighting system is required.
The system should
• operate on 6 Volts
• be able to flicker
• be clearly visible during the night.
(a) (i) State one additional specification for such a system. [1]
(ii) Give a reason why the specification in (a) (i) is important. [2]
(b) (i) Suggest two systems to activate flickering of the lighting device. [2]
(ii) Describe how each of the systems operate. [6]
(c) Select one system from (b) (i) that could be installed.
Give a reason for your choice. [3]
(d) Using a suitable method, draw a circuit diagram for your system. Use the
appropriate symbols on your circuit diagram. [12]
(e) List a selection of tools needed to install the system. [2]
(f) Describe a test to determine if the system satisfies the specification in (a) (i). [2]
