Description
of resource:
From the Vernier Website: "This sensor, which uses a Hall effect transducer, is sensitive enough to measure the Earth's magnetic field. It can also be used to study the field around permanent magnets, coils, and electrical devices. Our newly designed sensor has a rotating sensor tip. This allows you to measure both transverse and longitudinal magnetic fields."
