3. A flux valve senses the changes in orientation of the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field : 1- the flux valve is made of a pair of soft iron bars 2- the primary coils are fed AC voltage 3- the information can be used by a “flux gate” compass or a directional gyro 4- the flux gate valve casing is dependent on the aircraft three inertial axis 5- the accuracy of the value of the magnetic field indication is less than 0.5% The combination of correct statements is
