Measurement
Magnetic field along the axis
How It Is Used
The coil is connected to a DC supply and the current raised gradually. The field at points along the axis is then detected with a compass or magnetic field sensor, and the readings are recorded to show how the field changes with position along the axis of the loop.
Frequently Asked Questions
What power supply does the Magnetic Field Along Circular Loop need?
A standard low-voltage DC supply; the specification gives 0–12V DC.
What loop size does the Magnetic Field Along Circular Loop have?
The loop diameter is listed as 10 cm to 20 cm, and the size can be customised.
