Earth's Magnetism

Question

The angle of dip at a certain place on earth is 30^o and the magnitude of earth's horizontal component of magnetic field is 0.82G. Then vertical component of magnetic field at that place on earth is

Moderate

A

0.41 G
B

0.82 $\sqrt{3} G$
C

0.82/ $\sqrt{3} G$
D

1.64 G

Solution

$\frac{B_{V}}{B_{H}} = \tan 30^{o} \Rightarrow B_{V} = \frac{0.82}{\sqrt{3}} G$
