प्रश्न
The horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field at a place is B and angle of dip is 60°. What is the value of vertical component of earth’s magnetic field at equator?
उत्तर
On the equator, the values of both angle of dip (δ) and vertical component of earth’s magnetic field is zero. So, in this case, Bv = 0.

The earth’s core is known to contain iron. Yet geologists do not regard this as a source of the earth’s magnetism. Why?
At a certain location in Africa, a compass points 12° west of the geographic north. The north tip of the magnetic needle of a dip circle placed in the plane of magnetic meridian points 60° above the horizontal. The horizontal component of the earth’s field is measured to be 0.16 G.
