Question

  1. A. Poles of a magnet: step-up transformer demonstration evidence shows State that an induced magnet loses most or all of its magnetism quickly when removed from the magnetic field. 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. (force-link error).
  3. C. It confuses the magnetic field with an electric field. (turns-ratio error).
  4. D. It describes energy transfer but misses the force or field interaction. (AC-output error).

Answer

Poles of a magnet: step-up transformer demonstration evidence shows State that an induced magnet loses most or all of its magnetism quickly when removed from the magnetic field. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.

Explanation

Poles of a magnet: step-up transformer demonstration evidence shows State that an induced magnet loses most or all of its magnetism quickly when removed from the magnetic field. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Poles of a magnet, uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The step-up transformer demonstration evidence detail makes the option distinct from nearby objectives while still testing the same AQA GCSE Physics learning objective.

Common mistake

generator-effect induction: avoid permanent and induced magnets

Treating permanent and induced magnets as interchangeable when answering about generator-effect induction.

Instead, identify the exact Unit 4.7 idea in Poles of a magnet, then explain how it links to a step-down transformer for a low-voltage device and the objective to state that an induced magnet loses most or all of its magnetism quickly when removed from the magnetic field.
