Practicing Success
In the magnetic meridian at a certain place the horizontal component of earths magnetic field is 32 G and the angle of dip is 60°. The total magnetic field of the earth at this location, is: |
0.52 G 0.64 G 0.54 G 0.32 G |
0.64 G |
The correct answer is Option (2) → 0.64 G $H = 32 G$ $\delta=60^{\circ}$ $H=R \cos \delta$ $R=\frac{H}{\cos \delta}$ $=\frac{32 \times 2}{1} = 64 G$ If H would be 0.32 G then answer would be 0.64 G. |
