At a point A on the earth's surface the angle of dip, δ=+25°. At a point B on the earth's surface the angle of dip, δ=-25°. We can interpret that:

1. A and B are both located in the southern hemisphere.

2. A and B are both located in the northern hemisphere.

3. A is located in the southern hemisphere and B is located in the northern hemisphere.

4. A is located in the northern hemisphere and B is located in the southern hemisphere.

A vibration magnetometer placed in a magnetic meridian has a small bar magnet. The magnet executes oscillations with a time period of 2s in earth's horizontal magnetic field of 24 μT. When a horizontal field of 18 μT is produced opposite to the earth's field by placing a current-carrying wire, the new time period of the magnet will be

1. 1s

2. 2s

3. 3s

4. 4s
