Our earth behaves as it has a powerful magnet within it. The value of magnetic field on the surface of earth is a few tenth of gauss (1G = 10^(-4) T) There are three elements of Earth’s magnetism (i) Angle of declination (ii) Angle of dip (iii) Horizontal component of Earth’s magnetic field. In the magnetic meridian of a certain place, the horizontal component of Earth’s magnetic field is 0.6 G and the dip angle is 53^@ . The value of vertical component of earth's magnetic field at this place is
