How will the angle of dip vary when one goes from a place where acceleration due to gravity is maximum - Physics - Magnetism And Matter

Question

How will the angle of dip vary when one goes from a place where
acceleration due to gravity is maximum to a place where it is
minimum on the surface of the earth ?

Ved Prakash Lakhera · Accepted Answer

The acceleration due to gravity is maximum at the poles and minimum on the equator
When move from poles to equator then angle of dip is maximumat the poles and minimum on the equator
 It means angle of dip = δ =90° at the poles and δ = 0° on equator
