At a certain place,the angle of dip is $30^{\circ}$ and the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $0.50 \text{ Oersted}$. The Earth's total magnetic field is:

$A$ compass needle is free to rotate in a horizontal plane. Its magnetic moment is $60 \ Am^2$. When it is pointing geographical north,it experiences a torque of $1.2 \times 10^{-3} \ Nm$ due to the Earth's magnetic field. If the Earth's magnetic field in the horizontal direction is $40 \times 10^{-6} \ T$,what is the declination in degrees at that place?

$A$ line passing through places having zero value of magnetic dip is called

Who first used the properties of a magnet to show direction,and why?

Magnetic meridian is a

$A$ magnet is suspended in such a way that it oscillates in the horizontal plane. It makes $20$ oscillations per minute at a place where the dip angle is $30^{\circ}$ and $15$ oscillations per minute at a place where the dip angle is $60^{\circ}$. The ratio of the total Earth's magnetic field at the two places is:
