Horizontal component of earth’s magnetic field at a place is \(\sqrt 3\) times the vertical component. What is the value of inclination at that place? |

Answer» Given that: BH = \(\sqrt3\) Bv Also, BH = B cos\(\delta\) Bv = B sin\(\delta\) ∴ tan\(\delta\) = \(\frac{B_v}{B_H}\) = \(\frac{B_v}{\sqrt{3}\,B_v}\) = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt3}\) \(\Rightarrow\) \(\delta\) = 30º \(\frac{Bv}{B_H}=tan\theta\) Putting values,\(\theta\)=30° |
