Question
- A. Magnetic fields: alternator output trace boundary shows State that the force between a magnet and a magnetic material is always attraction. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It reverses the role of primary and secondary coils. (direction error).
- C. It assumes transformers work on direct current without changing flux. (cause error).
- D. It states the turns ratio changes resistance rather than voltage. (evidence error).
Answer
Magnetic fields: alternator output trace boundary shows State that the force between a magnet and a magnetic material is always attraction. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Magnetic fields: alternator output trace boundary shows State that the force between a magnet and a magnetic material is always attraction. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Magnetic fields, uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The alternator output trace boundary 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 Magnetic fields, then explain how it links to a current-carrying wire between magnetic poles and the objective to state that the force between a magnet and a magnetic material is always attraction.
