Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option C: Law of conservation of energy
Concept:

Lenz's law dictates that the induced magnetic field opposes the motion or change creating it.

Solution:

  • Because it opposes the motion, external mechanical work is required to push through this "magnetic friction."


  • This mechanical work is converted directly into electrical energy. Thus, Lenz's law prevents energy from being created out of nothing, making it consistent with the Law of conservation of energy.


Why other options are incorrect:

If Lenz's law were not true (if the field aided motion), a magnet would accelerate endlessly on its own, violating the first law of thermodynamics (energy conservation).

Quality & Fidelity Assurance: Every question on BeambePrep is rigorously curated against the official PMDC syllabus with zero filler, zero out-of-syllabus content, and zero typos. When an authentic past paper originally contained a historical mistake or ambiguity from the examining board (such as UHS or NUMS), BeambePrep faithfully reflects the original paper while detailing the nuance and scientific consensus in the autopsy above.
