Question

w) Define the Angle of Dip What happens to
angle of dip as we move towards magnetic
pole from magnetic equator​

Answer 1

Answer:

At the magnetic equator, the dip needle rests horizontally at an angle of dip = 0 degrees while, At the magnetic poles, the magnetic needle rests vertically, at an angle of dip = 90 degrees. At all the other places, the angle of dip is between 0 and 90 degrees.

Answer 2

Answer:

The angle of dip is the angle formed by the total field vector with regard to the horizontal plane. As we travel from the magnetic equator to the magnetic poles, the angle of dip rises.

Explanation:

• The angle of dip is defined as the angle formed by the total field vector in relation to the horizontal plane. It is also known as a magnetic dip.
• The angle of dip rises as we move from the Earth's magnetic equator to its magnetic poles. The magnetic field is present in both the vertical and horizontal directions at the poles, but only in the horizontal direction at the equator.
