A) 0.18 gauss, 0.18 \[\sqrt{3}\]gauss
B) 0.09 gauss, 0.09 \[\sqrt{3}\]gauss
C) 0.36 gauss, 0.36 \[\sqrt{3}\]gauss
D) None of the above
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Angle of dip (9) at a place is defined as the angle between the direction of earths magnetic field and horizontal component (H) in the magnetic meridian at that place. \[H=B\cos \theta \] Given, B = 0.36 gauss, \[\theta ={{60}^{o}}\] \[\therefore \] \[H=0.36\times \frac{1}{2}=0.18\] gauss and vertical component is \[V=B\,\sin \theta \] \[=0.36\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\] \[V=0.18\,\sqrt{3}\] gaussYou need to login to perform this action.
