Question

What are the values of the vertical component and total intensity of earth’s field at a place where dip is 60° and horizontal component is 0.3G 

(a) 0.52G and 0.6G 

(b) 0.3G and 0.9G 

(c) 0.09G and 0.3G 

(d) 0.16G and 0.16G

Answer 1

Correct option is : (a) 0.52G and 0.6G

B_V = 0.52G, B = 0.6G ;

B = B_H/cos60, B_V = Bsin60
