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

At a certain place,the angle of dip is $30^{\circ}$ and the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $0.5 \ G$. The Earth's total magnetic field (in $G$) at that place is:

If ${\phi_1}$ and ${\phi_2}$ are the angles of dip observed in two vertical planes at right angles to each other and ${\phi}$ is the true angle of dip,then:

The lines of force due to the Earth's horizontal component of the magnetic field are:

The earth's magnetic field lines resemble that of a dipole at the centre of the earth. If the magnetic moment of this dipole is close to $8 \times 10^{22} \text{ Am}^2$,the value of earth's magnetic field near the equator is close to $.... \text{ Gauss}$ (radius of the earth $= 6.4 \times 10^6 \text{ m}$)

Lines which represent places of constant angle of dip are called
