D
None
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
is apparent dip, let 
be the angle made by dip circle with magnetic meridian.
Now rotating dip circle by 
from this position. It will now make angle 
with the magnetic meridian. In this case apparent dip is 
Now we have relation
(i)
Where, 
is true dip in magnetic meridian
From eq (i)
or
