The angle of inclination of the remanent magnetization of a volcanic rock measured at a location is 45° . The magnetic latitude of the location of the volcanic rock at the time of its magnetization is _________ °N
The magnetic latitude of the position of the volcanic rock at the time of its magnetization is about 45°N.
This is because the inclination angle of the remaining magnetization is 45°. This is the magnetic latitude at which the magnetic field lines of the Earth are 45° inclined with reference to the surface.
