Question
- A. Poles of a magnet: overhead cable transmission direction shows State that two like magnetic poles repel each other. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It swaps motor and generator reasoning. (load-effect error).
- C. It describes gravitational force instead of magnetic force. (power-link error).
- D. It claims induced current is supplied by a cell. (exam-command error).
Answer
Poles of a magnet: overhead cable transmission direction shows State that two like magnetic poles repel each other. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Poles of a magnet: overhead cable transmission direction shows State that two like magnetic poles repel each other. 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 overhead cable transmission direction 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 current-carrying wire between magnetic poles and the objective to state that two like magnetic poles repel each other.
