At a place, the horizontal and vertical ...

At a place, the horizontal and vertical intensities of earth's magnetic field is `0.30` Gauss and `0.173` Gauss respectively. The angle of dip at this place is

A

`30^(@)`

B

`90^(@)`

C

`60^(@)`

D

`45^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`tan varphi=B_(V)/B_(H)=0.173/0.30=1.73/3.0=sqrt(3)/3=1/sqrt(3) implies varphi=30^(@)`
