Explain the angle of dip.

At some location on Earth,the horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field is $18 \times 10^{-6} \ T$. At this location,a magnetic needle of length $0.12 \ m$ and pole strength $1.8 \ A \ m$ is suspended from its mid-point using a thread. It makes a $45^{\circ}$ angle with the horizontal in equilibrium. To keep this needle horizontal,the vertical force that should be applied at one of its ends is:

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.

$A$ dip needle lies initially in the magnetic meridian when it shows an angle of dip $\theta$ at a place. The dip circle is rotated through an angle $x$ in the horizontal plane and then it shows an angle of dip $\theta'$. Then $\frac{\tan \theta'}{\tan \theta}$ is

Give the location of magnetic:
$(i)$ north pole
$(ii)$ south pole
