The relations amongst the three elements earth's magnetic field, namely horizontal component H , vertical component V and dip are, ( B _ E = . total magnetic field )
Options
- AV=B_E , H=B_E
- BV=B_E , H=B_E
- CV=B_E , H=B_E
- DV=B_E, H=B e_E
Correct answer
B. V=B_E , H=B_E
Step-by-step solution
Let B _ E be the net magnetic field at same point. H and V be the horizontal and vertical components of B _ E . Let be the angle of dip, which is the angle between direction of earth's magnetic field B_E and horizontal line in the magnetic meridian. Thus, from figure, we can see that H = B _ E and V = B _ E
