Magnetic Couple
The couple of magnetic force which tends to bring the magnetic needle into the plane of the magnetic meridian. One force is represented by the imaginary pull upon the north pole, and the other by the opposite pull upon the south pole of the needle. The moment of the couple varies from a maximum when the needle is at right angles to the plane of the magnetic meridian to zero when it is in such plane.
