Magnetic scales
Magnetic scales measure forces or weights with the help of a magnetic field, which is usually generated by an electromagnet . Magnetic scales use the principle of magnetic susceptibility .
They are available in different versions:
- the Gouy balance (Gouy balance), see also magnetochemistry
- the Faraday scales
- the Cotton scales can measure the weight of coins magnetically with great accuracy
- the Becquerel balance measures the attractive or repulsive force that a spiral through which current flows exerts on a magnet
- the magnetic torsion balance measures the torque on a torsion thread
- the coulomb torsion balance measures currents with a rotating needle
- the you boissche magnetic scales
- the Evans scales
- the magnetic balance according to Weiß measures the attractive or repulsive force that is exerted on a permanent magnet
