Question

  1. A. Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): solenoid strength investigation turns-ratio shows (Physics only) (HT only) Explain how a moving-coil loudspeaker works. 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. (compass-response error).
  3. C. It confuses the magnetic field with an electric field. (pole-test error).
  4. D. It describes energy transfer but misses the force or field interaction. (load-effect error).

Answer

Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): solenoid strength investigation turns-ratio shows (Physics only) (HT only) Explain how a moving-coil loudspeaker works. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.

Explanation

Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): solenoid strength investigation turns-ratio shows (Physics only) (HT only) Explain how a moving-coil loudspeaker works. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux. It is correct because it anchors the response to Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only), uses the relevant magnetic field, coil, current or induction evidence, and avoids mixing motor, generator and transformer ideas. The solenoid strength investigation turns-ratio 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 Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only), then explain how it links to a calculation using primary and secondary coils and the objective to explain how a moving-coil loudspeaker works.
