उत्तर
0°
Explanation:
`"B"_"V"/"B"_"H"` = tanΦ
As, BV = 0, tanΦ = 0 ⇒ Φ = 0°

A long straight horizontal cable carries a current of 2.5 A in the direction 10° south of west to 10° north of east. The magnetic meridian of the place happens to be 10° west of the geographic meridian. The earth’s magnetic field at the location is 0.33 G, and the angle of dip is zero.
