Answer the question regarding earth's magnetism: The angle of dip at a location in southern India is about 18^@. Would you expect a greater or smaller dip angle in Britain?

Answer»

Solution :(B) As compared to southern PART of India,Britain is closer to magnetic north pole of Earth and so dip angle at Britain is more. (Please remember that as we MOVE from magnetic EQUATOR to magnetic poles of Earth, dip angle (also called inclination) goes on increasing from 0° to 90°).
(NOTE: Dip angle at Britain is about `70^@` )
