Earth's Magnetic Field components in a region

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding the Earth's magnetic field strength in specific locations, particularly in Canadian cities. The user seeks to compare their experimental results with official data from institutes. While information is readily available for American cities, Canadian data appears to be more challenging to locate. Suggestions for resources or methods to obtain this information are welcomed. Accurate local magnetic field data is essential for validating experimental findings.

Any know a way I could find out the Earth's field in the city I live in.

I ask this because I have performed the charge to mass ratio experiment and my prof said it would be nice to compare the field i found for the Earth and the actual field recorded by some institute.

I can find information for American cities but not for Canadian

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'

So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...

Thread 'Why measure the speed of light in one direction?'

It may be shown from the equations of electromagnetism, by James Clerk Maxwell in the 1860’s, that the speed of light in the vacuum of free space is related to electric permittivity (ϵ) and magnetic permeability (μ) by the equation: c=1/√( μ ϵ ) . This value is a constant for the vacuum of free space and is independent of the motion of the observer. It was this fact, in part, that led Albert Einstein to Special Relativity.
