NEET Physics Earth's Magnetism Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Angle of dip (i) Magnetic declination (b) Magnetic meridian (ii) Earth's magnetic field direction (c) Horizontal component (iii) Perpendicular to magnetic meridian (d) Magnetic declination (iv) Angle made with the horizontal
Choose the correct matching:
a-iv, b-ii, c-iii, d-i
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The angle of dip is indeed defined as the angle made with the horizontal (a-iv). The magnetic meridian relates to the direction of the Earth's magnetic field (b-ii), while the horizontal component is perpendicular to the magnetic meridian (c-iii), and magnetic declination is the angle between magnetic north and true north (d-i).
