A steady pressure is applied to the diaphragm of a moving-coil microphone and held constant. The microphone produces no output. Which statement explains why?
A steady pressure is too small to move the coil inside the magnet
The field of the permanent magnet is too weak to induce a potential difference
The coil is not part of a complete circuit while the diaphragm is still
The coil is not moving, so the field through the coil is not changing
