Question
- A. Transformers (HT only): loudspeaker cone test cause shows (Physics only) (HT only) Explain how the effect of an alternating current in one coil inducing a current in another is used in transformers. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It swaps motor and generator reasoning. (current-change error).
- C. It describes gravitational force instead of magnetic force. (voltage-change error).
- D. It claims induced current is supplied by a cell. (force-link error).
Answer
Transformers (HT only): loudspeaker cone test cause shows (Physics only) (HT only) Explain how the effect of an alternating current in one coil inducing a current in another is used in transformers. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Transformers (HT only): loudspeaker cone test cause shows (Physics only) (HT only) Explain how the effect of an alternating current in one coil inducing a current in another is used in transformers. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Transformers (HT only), uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The loudspeaker cone test cause detail makes the option distinct from nearby objectives while still testing the same AQA GCSE Physics learning objective.

Common mistake
National Grid transformer reasoning: avoid magnetic field...
Treating magnetic field direction and force direction as interchangeable when answering about National Grid transformer reasoning.
Instead, identify the exact Unit 4.7 idea in Transformers (HT only), then explain how it links to a dynamo producing a DC output trace and the objective to explain how the effect of an alternating current in one coil inducing a current in another is used in transformers.
