प्रश्न
A magnetic needle is free to rotate in a vertical plane which makes an angle of 60° with the magnetic meridian. If the needle stays in a direction making an angle of `tan^-1(2sqrt(3))` with the horizontal, what would be the dip at that place?

उत्तर
Given :
Angle made by the magnetic meridian with the plane of rotation of the needle , `θ = 60^circ`
Angle made by the needle with the horizontal, `δ_1 = tan^-1(2/sqrt(3))`
If δ is the angle of dip , then
`tan δ_1 = tanδ/cosθ`
⇒ `tan δ = tan δ_1 cos θ`
⇒ `tan δ = tan (tan^-1 2/sqrt3) cos60^circ`
⇒ `tan δ = 2/sqrt(3) xx 1/2 = 1/sqrt(3)`
⇒ `δ = 30^circ`

Compare the direction of the magnetic field inside a solenoid with that of the field there if the solenoid is replaced by its equivalent combination of north pole and south pole.
Magnetic scalar potential is defined as `U(vec r_2) - U(vec r_1) = - ∫_vec(r_1)^vec(r_2)` `vec (B) . dvec(l)`
Apply this equation to a closed curve enclosing a long straight wire. The RHS of the above equation is then `-u_0 i` by Ampere's law. We see that `U(vec(r_2)) ≠ U(vec(r_1))` even when `vec r_2 =vec r_1` .Can we have a magnetic scalar potential in this case?
