Define the angle of dip. What happens to angle of dip as we move towards magnetic pole from magnetic equator?

Answer»

Angle made by the direction of resultant magnetic field with the horizontal at a place is inclination or angle of dip (ø) at the place. At the magnetic pole value of ø = 90° and it goes on decreasing when we move towards equator such that at equator value of (ø) = 0°.
