Measuring Earth's Magnetic Field with a Compass and Magnet
This project aims to calculate Earth's magnetic field by measuring the deflection of a compass needle due to a magnet. A compass is placed on a stable surface, and its initial direction is recorded. A magnet is positioned at different distances, and the deflection angle is measured. The relationship between distance and deflection is analyzed to estimate Earth's magnetic field for example magnetic field strength in my city is ≈0.49 Gauss. Multiple measurements are compared and averaged for accuracy. This project is ongoing. If you're interested in collaborating, feel free to contact me.
