A vibration magnetometer compares magnetic fields because a disturbed suspended magnet
Aloses all its moment
Bspins at constant speed
Crises vertically upward
Dvibrates about its mean
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. vibrates about its mean
Its oscillation period depends on the field strength, which allows comparison of fields.
