Mastery checklist
Know what success looks like.
- 01
Identify the source of the field and distinguish field direction from force direction.
- 02
Use vector superposition or flux reasoning without dropping signs or geometry.
- 03
Connect the field model to force, energy, or induced e.m.f. in the mapped situation.
