Title: A Simple Derivation of the Working Equations of Magnetic Variometers for Vertical and Horizontal Intensity

Author(s): Oliver C. Lester (2)

Abstract:

Derivations of the working equations of a local magnetic variometer in general use in the field are ordinarily based upon complicated theoretical considerations, the use of Lagrange's equations, etc. These methods call for more theory than is generally at the command of persons using the instrument. The author presents a simple derivation involving nothing more than elementary physics.
