2000 millitesla setting, it readsi 100 does this mean the field is 0.2T or 0.1T? I was pretty sure it was 0.2T but a demonstrator said the field had a maximum of ~1T but I'm getting a max of 2T.
The term "2000 mT setting" refers to a specific measurement setting used in scientific instruments, particularly in magnetic field measurement devices. It indicates that the device is set to measure magnetic fields with a strength of 2000 millitesla (mT).
Millitesla (mT) is a unit of measurement for magnetic field strength. It is equivalent to one thousandth of a tesla, which is the standard unit for measuring magnetic fields.
The 2000 mT setting does not directly affect the accuracy of the measurement. It simply indicates the range of magnetic fields that the device is capable of measuring. The accuracy of the measurement will depend on the sensitivity and calibration of the specific instrument being used.
The 2000 mT setting is typically used when measuring strong magnetic fields, such as those found near large magnets or in industrial settings. It may also be used for research purposes in fields such as physics, geology, and materials science.
No, the 2000 mT setting is not a universal standard setting in all magnetic field measurement devices. The range of measurement settings may vary depending on the specific device and its intended use. It is important to consult the device's manual or specifications to determine its capabilities and settings.
