Question 6

A flexible metal strip vibrates in a magnetic field. The movement induces a potential difference between the ends of the strip. The ends are connected to a sensitive current meter through an open switch.

Which action will make the meter detect an induced current?

[1]
A

Make the strip vibrate at a higher frequency.

B

Replace the magnet with a stronger magnet.

C

Close the switch between the strip and the meter.

D

Turn the magnet around so its poles are reversed.
