Question

Horizontal component of the earth's field is 3×105T and of dip is 53o. Magnetic field of the earth at that place is
  1. 25×105T
  2. 5×105T
  3. 85×1010T
  4. 9.9×108T

A
25×105T
B
5×105T
C
85×1010T
D
9.9×108T
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The correct option is B 5×105T
Horizontal component of the earths magnetic fields is given by
BH=Bcosδ
B=BHcosδ=3×105cos53o
=5×105T
