6680 Mechanics M4 Mark Scheme
General:
For M marks, correct number of terms, dimensionally correct, all terms that need resolving are resolved.
Omission of g from a resolution is an accuracy error, not a method error.
Omission of mass from a resolution is a method error.
Omission of a length from a moments equation is a method error.
Where there is only one method mark for a question or part of a question, this is for a complete method.
Omission of units is not (usually) counted as an error.
