Question
- A. Electromagnetism: school bell electromagnet efficiency shows Draw the magnetic field pattern for a straight wire carrying a current. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It swaps motor and generator reasoning. (measurement error).
- C. It describes gravitational force instead of magnetic force. (diagnosis error).
- D. It claims induced current is supplied by a cell. (prediction error).
Answer
Electromagnetism: school bell electromagnet efficiency shows Draw the magnetic field pattern for a straight wire carrying a current. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Electromagnetism: school bell electromagnet efficiency shows Draw the magnetic field pattern for a straight wire carrying a current. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Electromagnetism, uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The school bell electromagnet efficiency detail makes the option distinct from nearby objectives while still testing the same AQA GCSE Physics learning objective.

Common mistake
motor-effect force direction: avoid motors and generators
Treating motors and generators as interchangeable when answering about motor-effect force direction.
Instead, identify the exact Unit 4.7 idea in Electromagnetism, then explain how it links to a student comparing motor and generator effects and the objective to draw the magnetic field pattern for a straight wire carrying a current.
