    was difficult to measure the magnetic field of the earth quantitatively, due to there were no real standard to compare it against. Geologists in that era had difficulties on navigating from point A to point B [2]. As electromagnetic theory was industrialized through the 1800s, it was found that magnetic field strength could be given a definite value using coils which carries the current. In this EEi, the aim is to determine the measurement of the local magnetic field, comparing to a known value created

    Abstract Summary Magnets have a magnetic field surrounding them and these fields is the magnetism force that the magnet poses of an object. On a large scale, the Earth is a magnet which also has a magnetic field. Magnets also has North and South poles which can flip. The amount of magnetic material attracted to the magnet, allows the magnet’s poles to flip. Flipping on the earth’s magnet could cause destruction on the earth. The magnetic field protects earth from solar radiation. Purpose of the

    The Earth’s magnetic field The discovery of the Earth’s magnetic field Over 2000 years ago, the Chinese discovered that lodestone, a naturally magnetised iron ore, would align itself in a north-south direction. Hundreds of years later, they discovered that their “compasses” didn’t point true north and in fact that this position changed with time. The compass was first used for navigation in the 11th-12th century, only arriving in Europe towards the end of this period. Then, in 1600, William

    electric charge causing in an attraction and repulsion force between an object. A magnetic field can be created by an electronic solenoid and can be influenced by multiple variables. The number of coils on a solenoid will affect the strength of the magnetic field. Furthermore, the length of the solenoid will determine the strength of the magnetic field. As more current is passed through a solenoid the magnetic field will greaten. Current and voltage are propionate and as voltage increases, so will

    1.Question How strong is the magnetic field went the length of the coil on the electromagnet is shorter or longer? 2. Relevance The relevance of the lab is to teach people how electromagnets work. They are useful because they can be turned on and off. 3. Variables Independent variable: The length of the coil. Dependent variable: The amount of paper clips that were attacked. Control variable: The battery. 4. Hypothesis As my hypothesis, I predict that as the coils get smaller they won't pick up

    Evidence of Magnetic Field-Induced Coupled magnetoelectric Domains in Single Phase layered Multiferroic thin films Increasing demands for high data storage and sensing applications led the interest in the area of single phase multifunctional materials so-called ‘multiferroics’. Material with coupled ferroic order parameters such as between ferroelectric and ferromagnetic in‘mutiferroics’ provides an additional degree of freedom with ability to write through ferroelectric polarization and read the

    physics of the electromagnetic field, a field that exerts a force on particles with the property of electric charge and is reciprocally affected by the presence and motion of such particles. A changing magnetic field produces an electric field (this is the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, the basis of operation for electrical generators, induction motors, and transformers). Similarly, a changing electric field generates a magnetic field. The magnetic field is produced by the motion of electric
