Question

  1. A. Induced potential (HT only): classroom plotting compass compass-response shows (Physics only) (HT only) Recall the factors that affect the size of the induced potential difference or induced current. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
  2. B. It treats a permanent magnet as if it only works when current flows. (energy-transfer error).
  3. C. It confuses the magnetic field with an electric field. (field-shape error).
  4. D. It describes energy transfer but misses the force or field interaction. (current-change error).

Answer

Induced potential (HT only): classroom plotting compass compass-response shows (Physics only) (HT only) Recall the factors that affect the size of the induced potential difference or induced current. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.

Explanation

Induced potential (HT only): classroom plotting compass compass-response shows (Physics only) (HT only) Recall the factors that affect the size of the induced potential difference or induced current. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Induced potential (HT only), uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The classroom plotting compass compass-response 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 AC and DC

Treating AC and DC as interchangeable when answering about National Grid transformer reasoning.

Instead, identify the exact Unit 4.7 idea in Induced potential (HT only), then explain how it links to a moving-coil microphone investigation and the objective to recall the factors that affect the size of the induced potential difference or induced current.
