Which instrument is used to compare magnetic movements and fields?
A
Micrometer
B
Machmeter
C
Manometer
D
Magnetometer
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Vibration magnetometer is used for comparison of magnetic moments and magnetic fields. This device works on the principle, that whenever a freely suspended magnet in a uniform magnetic field, is disturbed from it’s equilibrium position, it starts vibrating about the mean position.

Detailed explanation-2: -magnetometer, , instrument for measuring the strength and sometimes the direction of magnetic fields, including those on or near the Earth and in space. Magnetometers are also used to calibrate electromagnets and permanent magnets and to determine the magnetization of materials.
