At a certain place, the horizontal component `B_(0)` and the vertical component `V_(0)` of the earth's magnetic field are equal in magnidude. The total intensity at the place will be

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total intensity ` = sqrt(B_(0)^(2) + V_(0)^(2)) = sqrt(B_(0)^(2) + B_(0)^(2)) = sqrt(2)B_(0)`
