Abstract

The article discusses the impact of ferromagnetic materials on the flux density of a solenoid, emphasizing the need for students to understand physics concepts beyond memorizing equations. It highlights the importance of using open-source software and applications in theoretical physics classes to enhance the teaching and learning process. Through an experimental analysis using a smartphone with a magnetometer app, the relationship between a magnetic core and the measured magnetic field amplitude is explored, shedding light on the efficiency of transformers. The study aims to encourage students to engage in hands-on learning experiences and make meaningful discoveries in physics education. [Extracted from the article]
