A magnet suspended in earth's magnetic field can vibrated in horizontal plane. . A second magnet is so placed that the field becomes less than the horizontal component of earth's field. In this situatio, the time period will

Define the terms magnetic inclination and horizontal component of earth’s magnetic field at a place. Establish the relationship between the two with help of a diagram.

The horzinontal component of earth's magnetic field is 0.2 gauss and total magnetic field is 0.4 gauss. Find angle of dip.

A short bar magnet placed in a horizontal plane has its axis aligned along the magnetic north-south direction. Null points are found on the axis of the magnet at 14 cm from the centre of the magnet. The earth’s magnetic field at the place is 0.36 G and the angle of dip is zero. What is the total magnetic field on the normal bisector of the magnet at the same distance as the null-point (i.e., 14 cm) from the centre of the magnet? (At null points, field due to a magnet is equal and opposite to the horizontal component of earth’s magnetic field.)

A short magnet of magnetic moment 2.0 Weber-metre is lying in a horizontal plane with its north pole pointing 60^(@) east of north. Find the net magnetic field at a point north of the magnet 0.2 m away from it. Horizontal component of earth's magnetic field = 0.3 xx 10^(-4) T.

Horizontal component of earth's magnetic field at a place is sqrt3 times the vertical component. What is the value of angle of dip at this place?
