flux valve

A flux valve detects the horizontal of the earth’s magnetic field

1) the flux valve is made of a pair of soft iron bars
2) the information can be used by a “flux gate” compass or a directional gyro
3) the flux gate valve signal comes from the error detector
4) the accuracy on the value of the magnetic field indication is less than 0.5%

Which of the following combinations contains all of the correct statements?

a) 2, 4
b) 1, 2, 4
c) 1, 4
d) 1, 2

a) marked correct. Why not (b)?

can some also pls explain the meaning of "the accuracy on the value of the magnetic field indication is less than 0.5%"

this seems pretty inaccurate

thanks
