ur a highschool student stop pretending you are smart or know anything about the way these subjects work at a higher level

whilst i agree physics should have more demanding calculations writing eloquently is an important facet of pure physics (not as relevant to things like engineering).
instead of being salty and complaining like a little kid "
This question really should be a 1 marker multiple choice with four paragraph options. There's no good reason this should be a 7 marker besides testing your writing skills. This would be a perfect multiple choice question, not so much a section 2 question. Not only that, these marking schemes are ambiguous for no reason. The sample answer uses quantitative analysis, even though it only asked for an explanation?
These questions do not belong in physics. Board of Studies (superseded by NESA) even acknowledged these topics "
History of Physical discoveries" in the pre 2000s syllabus, as an optional topic for those who don't want to study physics at a higher level. " go practice writing the response. It's one thing to be able to think about how to answer a question and it's another to be able to actually write out a response --> it's like teaching a concept you can only do it if you really understand it.
And in general anything you do in highschool will be done in like 3 weeks in university, doesn't really matter anyway.
