What is used to measure Magnetic flux?
A
lux
B
weber
C
angstrom
D
light year
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The SI unit of magnetic flux is the weber (Wb; in derived units, volt–seconds), and the CGS unit is the maxwell. Magnetic flux is usually measured with a fluxmeter, which contains measuring coils, and it calculates the magnetic flux from the change of voltage on the coils.

Detailed explanation-2: -In physics, the weber (/ˈveɪb-, ˈwɛb. ər/ VAY-, WEH-bər; symbol: Wb) is the unit of magnetic flux in the International System of Units (SI), whose units are volt-second. A magnetic flux density of one Wb/m2 (one weber per square metre) is one tesla.

Detailed explanation-3: -A fluxmeter measures changes in magnetic flux, as detected through a Helmholtz or similar coil arrangement. Functionally, a fluxmeter consists of a pickup coil and an electronic integrator, as shown in Figure 10-1.
