How does the angle of dip vary from equator to poles?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand how the angle of dip varies from the equator to the poles, we can break down the explanation into several steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Angle of Dip**: - The angle of dip, also known as the magnetic dip, is the angle that the Earth's magnetic field makes with the horizontal plane. It measures how steeply the magnetic field lines are inclined. 2. **Behavior of the Compass**: ...
