The angle of dip at a place is $30^{\circ}$,and the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $5 \times 10^{-5} \, T$. Calculate the vertical component and the total magnetic field at that place.

  • A
    $5 \times 10^{-5} \, T, 10 \times 10^{-5} \, T$
  • B
    $(5 / \sqrt{3}) \times 10^{-5} \, T, (10 / \sqrt{3}) \times 10^{-5} \, T$
  • C
    $(5 \sqrt{3}) \times 10^{-5} \, T, (10 / \sqrt{3}) \times 10^{-5} \, T$
  • D
    None of the above

$A$ magnet hung at $45^{\circ}$ with the magnetic meridian makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The actual value of the angle of dip is.

At a point $A$ on the earth's surface, the angle of dip is $\delta = +25^{\circ}$. At a point $B$ on the earth's surface, the angle of dip is $\delta = -25^{\circ}$. We can interpret that:

The value of the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field and the angle of dip are $1.8 \times 10^{-5} \, Wb/m^2$ and $30^{\circ}$ respectively at a certain place. The total intensity of the earth's magnetic field at that place will be:

If the magnetic declination at a place is known to be $15^{\circ} \, E$,and a compass needle points as shown in the figure,then the geographic north is represented by which numbered direction?
