A uniform electric field of magnitude E = 38 N/C points along the x-axis. A circular loop of radius R = 26 cm is centered at the origin with the normal to the loop pointing θ = 45 degrees above the x-axis. Calculate the electric flux in units of N⋅m2/C that passes through the loop. When solving for this why am not getting 5.707 when I plug everything into the calculator? When plugging everything in electric flux = 38 N/C × A × Cos(45°) I am not getting the correct value for the Cos(45°). What could I possibly be doing wrong to not get the 0.707? When I do Cos(45) in my calculator I am getting 0.52532198881.
