The values of the apparent angles of dip in two planes at right angles to each other are $45^{\circ}$ and $30^{\circ}$ respectively. The true value of the angle of dip at the place is ............

Answer the following questions regarding earth's magnetism:
$(a)$ $A$ vector needs three quantities for its specification. Name the three independent quantities conventionally used to specify the earth's magnetic field.
$(b)$ The angle of dip at a location in southern India is about $18^o$. Would you expect a greater or smaller dip angle in Britain?
$(c)$ If you made a map of magnetic field lines at Melbourne in Australia,would the lines seem to go into the ground or come out of the ground?
$(d)$ In which direction would a compass free to move in the vertical plane point to,if located right on the geomagnetic north or south pole?
$(e)$ The earth's field,it is claimed,roughly approximates the field due to a dipole of magnetic moment $8 \times 10^{22} \, J \, T^{-1}$ located at its centre. Check the order of magnitude of this number in some way.
$(f)$ Geologists claim that besides the main magnetic $N-S$ poles,there are several local poles on the earth's surface oriented in different directions. How is such a thing possible at all?

At two different places,the angles of dip are respectively $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$. At these two places,the ratio of the horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field is:

What is the most accepted scientific explanation for the origin of the Earth's magnetic field?

Which of the following relations is correct in the context of Earth's magnetism?

The ratio between the total intensity of the magnetic field at the equator to the poles is:
