As we go from the magnetic equator towards the geographic south pole, the angle of the dip will become:
1. | More and more vertically downward and perpendicular to the surface at the magnetic pole. |
2. | More and more vertically upward and perpendicular to the surface at the magnetic pole. |
3. | Less and less vertically downward and horizontal at the magnetic pole. |
4. | Less and less vertically upward and horizontal at the magnetic pole. |
A long solenoid has 1500 turns per metre and an iron core of = 1100 is kept inside it. 2A current flows in the coil of the solenoid. If the core is heated beyond curie temperature, then:
1. | The H and B fields in the solenoid reduce to zero. |
2. | The H and B fields in the solenoid remain unchanged. |
3. | The H field in the solenoid is nearly unchanged but B field decreases significantly. |
4. | The B field in the solenoid is nearly unchanged but the H field decreases significantly. |
