This article explains how the magnetometer sensor determines the velocity and acceleration of objects moving in a straight line. Data retrieval using experimental devices consisting of tracks, magnetic stones, DC motors, smartphones, Phyphox software, trolleys, and rulers. The magnetometer sensor measures the magnetic field strength at every point the object passes. Measurements were repeated five times to obtain more accurate data. Data analysis was performed using Microsoft Office Excel. The results indicated the magnetometer sensor with Phyphox software could accurately measure the magnetic field along the track, enabling the results to be used as a reference for determining the exact position and time. © School of Engineering, Taylor’s University.
