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
A dip needle in a plane perpendicular to magnetic meridian will remain:
1. Vertical
2. Horizontal
3. In any direction
4. At an angle of dip to the horizontal
The earth's magnetic field at a certain place has a horizontal component 0.3 Gauss and the total strength 0.5 Gauss. The angle of dip is:

4.
The current of 30 A is flowing in a vertical straight wire. If the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is 2 x 10-5 Tesla, then the position of the null point will be:
1. 0.9 m
2. 0.3 mm
3. 0.3 cm
4. 0.3 m
At point A on the earth's surface, the angle of dip is, . At a point B on the earth's surface, the angle of dip is, . 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. |
Above Curie temperature:
