• Tangent Galvanometer measures an electric current by determining the direction and magnitude of the horizontal components of the Earth's magnetic field.
• Students can place the compass with the needle parallel to the coil, pass a current through, and measure the angle of deflection.
• Features a non-magnetic rotating tripod base and a removable 5" compass with 1 degree graduations (SKU: PH0814).
• Approximately 9" tall, 6" wide, and 6" long.
• Great for educational use. Based on the principal of the Tangent Law of Magnetism.
