A dip needle vibrates in the vertical plane perpendicular to the magnetic meridian. The time period of vibration is found to be 2 seconds. If the same needle is then allowed to vibrate in the horizontal plane and the time period is again found to be 2 seconds, then the angle of dip is:

1. 0o

2. 30o

3. 45o

4. 90o

At point A on the earth's surface, the angle of dip is, δ=+25°. At a point B on the earth's surface, the angle of dip is, δ=-25°. We can interpret that:

1. A and B are both located in the southern hemisphere.
2. A and B are both located in the northern hemisphere.
3. A is located in the southern hemisphere and B is located in the northern hemisphere.
4. A is located in the northern hemisphere and B is located in the southern hemisphere.
