Description
Part 6: Observing the Hall Effect
We are constantly surrounded by waves in our everyday lives. Sound waves travel from a variety of sources to our ears, so we can hear. Light waves made of photons move through matter, so we can see. There are other invisible infrared, ultraviolet, cosmic rays, radio and TV transmissions, and naturally-occurring very-low frequency waves that travel all around us. Not only are we surrounded by waves but also magnetic and electrical fields. In part of the project, you will investigate the hall effect by using the ESP32 microprocessor to measure the proportional voltage under the effect of a magnetic field. View the video series, which includes Project Overview Video, Project Procedure Video(s), and Project Deliverable Video, for instructions and details to help guide you through your project assignments.
