A compass needle oscillates 20 times per minute at a place where the dip is `45^@` and 30 times per minute where the dip is `30^@`. Compare the total magnetic field due to the earth at the two places.A. `1.51`B. `1.83`C. `1.63`D. `1.23`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`(B_(H2))/(B_(H1))=(T_(1)^(2))/(T_(2)^(2))rArr(B_(2) cos delta_(2))/(B_(1) cos delta_(1))=(T_(1)^(2))/(T_(2)^(2))`
`therefore(B_(2))/(B_(1))=(T_(1)^(2) cos delta_(1))/(T_(2)^(2) cos delta_(2))`
