MCQ
Isogonic lines on magnetic map will have
  • A
    Zero angle of dip
  • B
    Zero angle of declination
  • Same angle of declination
  • D
    Same angle of dip

Answer

Correct option: C.
Same angle of declination
c
(c) Isogonal lines on a magnetic map will have same angle of magnetic declination. Magnetic declination is the angle on the horizontal plane between magnetic north and true north. This angle varies depending on position on the earth's surface, and changes over time.

Four bulbs, red, green, white and blue (denoted by $R$ $G, W$ and $B$ respectively) are kept in front of a converging lens (as shown in the figure below). The observer sees that the green and blue bulbs are kept to the left of the principal axis, while the red and white bulbs are kept to the right of the principal axis. He also sees that the red and green bulbs are above principal axis, while the white and blue bulbs are below the principal axis. The screens $S_1$ and $S_2$ are set appropriate positions for the focusing to view the images. Choose the figure that correctly represents the images as seen by the observer.
