The angle of dip at the magnetic equator is....$^o$

In the magnetic meridian of a certain place, the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field is $0.26\;G$ and the dip angle is $60^o$. What is the magnetic field of the earth at this location?

A telephone cable at a place has four long straight horizontal wires carrying a current of $1.0\; A$ in the same direction east to west. The earth's magnetic field at the place is $0.39 \;G ,$ and the angle of dip is $35^{\circ} .$ The magnetic declination is nearly zero. What are the resultant magnetic fields at points $4.0\; cm$ below and above the cable?

Fill in the blank.

$(i)$ The declination is ...... at higher latitudes.

$(ii)$ The declination in India is ...... .

A dip circle is adjusted so that its needle moves freely in the magnetic meridian. In this position, the angle of dip is $40°$. Now the dip circle is rotated so that the plane in which the needle moves makes an angle of $30°$ with the magnetic meridian. In this position the needle will dip by an angle

Planets producing larger magnetic field have larger
