Question

  1. A. Transformers (HT only): school bell electromagnet evidence shows (Physics only) (HT only) Recall and apply the transformer equation Vp / Vs = np / ns. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
  2. B. It swaps motor and generator reasoning. (measurement error).
  3. C. It describes gravitational force instead of magnetic force. (diagnosis error).
  4. D. It claims induced current is supplied by a cell. (prediction error).

Answer

Transformers (HT only): school bell electromagnet evidence shows (Physics only) (HT only) Recall and apply the transformer equation Vp / Vs = np / ns. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.

Explanation

Transformers (HT only): school bell electromagnet evidence shows (Physics only) (HT only) Recall and apply the transformer equation Vp / Vs = np / ns. 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 school bell electromagnet evidence 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 step-up transformer on the National Grid and the objective to recall and apply the transformer equation Vp / Vs = np / ns.
