A) \[30{}^\circ ,\text{ }60{}^\circ \]
B) \[0{}^\circ ,\text{ }90{}^\circ \]
C) \[45{}^\circ ,\text{ }90{}^\circ \]
D) \[90{}^\circ ,\text{ }0{}^\circ \]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
(d) \[90{}^\circ ,\text{ }0{}^\circ \] Since angle of dip at a place is defined as the angle \[\delta \], which is the direction of total intensity of Earth's magnetic field B makes with a horizontal line in magnetic meridian, At poles \[B={{B}_{V}}\] and \[{{B}_{V}}=B\,\sin \,\delta \] \[\therefore \sin \delta =1\Rightarrow \delta =90{}^\circ \] At equator \[B={{B}_{H}}\] and \[{{B}_{H}}=B\cos \delta \] \[\therefore \cos \delta =1\Rightarrow \delta =0\].
