Question
- A. Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): bicycle dynamo turns-ratio shows (Physics only) (HT only) State that loudspeakers and headphones use the motor effect. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
- B. It reverses the role of primary and secondary coils. (comparison error).
- C. It assumes transformers work on direct current without changing flux. (safety error).
- D. It states the turns ratio changes resistance rather than voltage. (efficiency error).
Answer
Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): bicycle dynamo turns-ratio shows (Physics only) (HT only) State that loudspeakers and headphones use the motor effect. because magnetic effects depend on field direction, current or changing magnetic flux.
Explanation
Loudspeakers (physics only) (HT only): bicycle dynamo turns-ratio shows (Physics only) (HT only) State that loudspeakers and headphones use the motor effect. 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 bicycle dynamo 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 step-down transformer for a low-voltage device and the objective to state that loudspeakers and headphones use the motor effect.
