Question
- A. Fleming's left-hand rule (HT only): loudspeaker cone test current-change shows (HT only) Identify force F in newtons, magnetic flux density B in tesla, current I in amperes and length l in metres. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It swaps motor and generator reasoning. (current-change error).
- C. It describes gravitational force instead of magnetic force. (voltage-change error).
- D. It claims induced current is supplied by a cell. (force-link error).
Answer
Fleming's left-hand rule (HT only): loudspeaker cone test current-change shows (HT only) Identify force F in newtons, magnetic flux density B in tesla, current I in amperes and length l in metres. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Fleming's left-hand rule (HT only): loudspeaker cone test current-change shows (HT only) Identify force F in newtons, magnetic flux density B in tesla, current I in amperes and length l in metres. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Fleming's left-hand rule (HT only), uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The loudspeaker cone test current-change 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 Fleming's left-hand rule (HT only), then explain how it links to a calculation using primary and secondary coils and the objective to identify force F in newtons, magnetic flux density B in tesla, current I in amperes and length l in metres.
