Question
- A. Microphones (HT only): laboratory bar magnet exam-command shows (Physics only) (HT only) Link movement of a coil in a magnetic field to induced potential difference in a microphone. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It says field lines travel from south to north outside the magnet. (power-link error).
- C. It makes AC and DC equivalent. (exam-command error).
- D. It ignores relative motion or changing magnetic flux. (direction error).
Answer
Microphones (HT only): laboratory bar magnet exam-command shows (Physics only) (HT only) Link movement of a coil in a magnetic field to induced potential difference in a microphone. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Microphones (HT only): laboratory bar magnet exam-command shows (Physics only) (HT only) Link movement of a coil in a magnetic field to induced potential difference in a microphone. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Microphones (HT only), uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The laboratory bar magnet exam-command 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 motors and generators
Treating motors and generators as interchangeable when answering about National Grid transformer reasoning.
Instead, identify the exact Unit 4.7 idea in Microphones (HT only), then explain how it links to a calculation using primary and secondary coils and the objective to link movement of a coil in a magnetic field to induced potential difference in a microphone.
