The magnetic sensor is used to display the magnetic field of a coil in a RC circuit.

==Requirements and experimental material==

- smartphone (with phyphox-app and magnetic sensors)

- a coil with low resistance and high inductance (for more information see paper)

- some capacitors between 470uF and 22.000uF

- a battery or power supply

==Introduction==
In this experiment a very simple LC circuit is created with a coil and a capacitor. To measure the magnetic field the coil has to have a low resistance and a high inductance. Such coils can be bought in audio supply and can be a bit expensive.

==Examples==

TODO

==Paper, and work sheets==
The experiment was developed in a thesis for education students (Staatsexamensarbeit) at the University of Konstanz. The results where published in an open access paper [https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1361-6552/ac920e], where a lot of additional information can be found.

Work sheets in German where developed and can be found here. TODO

 ==Setup==
-The capacitor is charged with a battery or power supply and then shortened with the coil (directly connected to the coil). The phone is placed on the coil (the z-axis of the magnetometer points "into" the core of the coil). Due to the high sensitivity of the magnetic sensor, low magnetic fields can be measured easily. Because of the high sensitivity, the sensor saturates quite fast. The saturation can be prevented simply by adding some pieces of cardboard between the coil and the smartphone.

The phone is placed on the coil (the z-axis of the magnetometer points "into" the core of the coil, how to find its position is described in [[Sensor:_Magnetic_field]] ). The best results can be obtained if the magnetic sensor is placed exactly above the core. Due to the high sensitivity of the magnetic sensor, low magnetic fields can be measured easily. Because of the high sensitivity, the sensor saturates quite fast. The saturation can be prevented simply by adding some pieces of cardboard between the coil and the smartphone.
