A Voyager/Phyphox Magnetic Dipole Experiment: The Inverse Cube Law
This lesson makes use of Voyager to measure both distance and magnetic field strength. Distance is measured by Voyager’s rangefinder, and magnetic field strength is measured by Voyager’s magnetometer. Data is plotted in real-time using Phyphox software. The advantage of Phyphox over the PocketLab app is that it can directly plot magnetic field strength versus distance and can export this data without reference to the time variable.
