Question
- A. Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): National Grid substation AC-output shows (Physics only) (HT only) Link the motion of the coil or cone to pressure variations in the surrounding air. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It says field lines travel from south to north outside the magnet. (efficiency error).
- C. It makes AC and DC equivalent. (energy-transfer error).
- D. It ignores relative motion or changing magnetic flux. (field-shape error).
Answer
Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): National Grid substation AC-output shows (Physics only) (HT only) Link the motion of the coil or cone to pressure variations in the surrounding air. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): National Grid substation AC-output shows (Physics only) (HT only) Link the motion of the coil or cone to pressure variations in the surrounding air. 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 National Grid substation AC-output 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 steel core electromagnet demonstration and the objective to link the motion of the coil or cone to pressure variations in the surrounding air.
