  • 8(a)(i)[2]

  • 8(a)(ii)[2]

  • 8(b)(either)[2]

    (increased current in coil causes) coil / core / relay to become magnetised coil / core attracts (iron / magnetic) switch

  • 8(b)(or)[2]

    transistor switches on / (gives) high (collector) current occurs when base and emitter voltage is high (> 0.6 V) or small current into base gives larger output / collector current
