Exploring Earth's Magnetism: Application of a Tangent Galvanometer to Measure Horizontal Components.

Earth’s magnetic field is a fundamental force that shapes our planet’s environment and technological systems. This study explores the horizontal components of Earth’s magnetism through precise measurements using a tangent galvanometer. By employing this classic scientific instrument, we aim to uncover key insights into the nature of Earth’s magnetic forces and their real-world applications, from navigation to satellite technology. The findings provide a deeper understanding of magnetic declination and inclination, offering valuable data for fields such as geophysics and environmental science. This research underscores the significance of Earth's magnetism in shaping both natural and technological processes, while demonstrating the relevance of traditional tools in modern scientific inquiry.
