Answer to Problem 1RQ

The north magnetic pole of the earth is a south polarity.

Explanation of Solution

Description:

The earth itself contains magnetic poles. As unlike poles attract each other, the north magnetic pole of a compass needle is attracted to the south magnetic pole of the earth and vice versa.

Hence the north magnetic pole is a geographic south pole.

Conclusion:

The north magnetic pole is a geographic south pole.

.I need the correct answer, and if it's wrong, please fix it 7. The midrange voltage gain of an amplifier is 100. The input RC circuit has a lower critical frequency of 1 kHz. The actual voltage gain at f-100 Hz is 100. 10. In a high-pass filter, the roll-off region occurs above the critical frequency.
