A dip circle is so set that it moves freely in the magnetic meridian. The angle of dip is 40°. Now the dip circle is rotated so that the plane in which the needle moves makes an angle of 30° with the magnetic meridian. In this position, the needle will dip by the angle



If the angle of dip at two places are 30° and 45° respectively, then the ratio of horizontal components of the earth’s magnetic field at the two places will be
