A Gauss Meter, or magnetometer, is an electronic device that is used to measure the strength of magnetic fields. Gauss Meters are commonly used to measure the strength of magnets and magnetic effects in electronics. They can also be used as metal detectors.

Where can one purchase a gaussmeter?
A gaussmeter is an instrument used to measure the strength and direction of magnetic fields. It was invented by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1833. One can purchase a gaussmeter from Amazon, eBay or directly from the website Gaussmeter.
Magnetic flux density can be measured by using?
Gaussmeter
What instrument measures the strength and direction of magnetic fields?
Through a digital scale
What does a Nuclear radiation device measure?
The device is called a Geiger counter and it has a measurement scale in Microsieverts.
What is the difference between gaussmeter and magnetometer?
Gauss meter_ Sensitive AC Gauss meters and EMF meters for measuring AC magnetic fields (50 Hz & 60 Hz Emf) Magnetometer- an instrument used for measuring magnetic forces, especially the earth's magnetism.
What device is used for electromagnetic radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation is just light. You can measure light with a light meter, which tells you intensity, or a camera sensitive to different frequencies. You can also use a magnetometer (Gaussmeter) to measure the B field component or a voltmeter to measure the E field component.
What instrument measures changes in Earth's magnetic field?
You can show that the Earth has a magnetic field by looking at a magnetic compass.The north end of the compass points to the north magnetic pole, and does so everywhere on Earth. It does this by aligning itself to the Earth's magnetic field. If there weren't a magnetic field, then a compass needle would not point to any consistent direction.See related links.
How do you calculate the magnetic dipole moment of a bar magnet?
The strength of a magnet can be determined by measuring its flux density (B) which is expressed in teslas. The flux density will vary according to where relative to the magnet it is being measured. The instrument for doing this is a flux-density meter (which was called a 'gaussmeter' - 'gauss' being an obsolete unit of measurement for flux density, from the cgsA metric system).
What are some electronics paranormal investigators use and where can you buy them?
With a little research, you can find there are websites that offer electronic paranormal investigation tools that you can easily purchase and use. You'll probably be interested in a digital thermometer, digital recorder for recording EVP's (electronic voice phenomenon), camcorders or cameras with infra-red technology for recording in the dark, EMF meter (electromagnetic field strength meter), Gaussmeter (magnetic field strength meter) and a whole host of others. Look up the Ghosthunter's site on the web and you can get some background info as well as references for places to start. Also do your research for equipment prices before you buy. Some have better deals than others. You can also start at: www.trifield.com.
What equipment to use to measure wavelength?
Electromagnetic radiation is just light. You can measure light with a light meter, which tells you intensity, or a camera sensitive to different frequencies. You can also use a magnetometer (Gaussmeter) to measure the B field component or a voltmeter to measure the E field component.Your eyes are instrumentstha measure EM radiation between 300 and 700 microns. We call this type of EM radiation "visible light." Other detectors of EM radiation ar CCD chips in digital cameras, and IR detectors in appliances with rerote controls.spectroscope?
