Answer:

Two poles

Explanation:

The word dipole can be splitted to two; "di" and "pole"; di means 2; hence dipole means 2 poles

A dipolar bar magnet has two poles on the earth surface; these poles are the geomagnetic north pole and the south pole respectively.

In other words, a dipole magnet is a type of magnet in which the opposite poles (which are the North and South poles) are on opposite sides of the magnet.

Away from the surface the dipole becomes distorted. The magnetic field of a bar magnet has a simple configuration known as a dipole field.

Di = two, just like 'bi'. --take di-zygotic twins, or di-atomic + di-sulphide, etc.

A real heat engine operates between temperatures TcTcT_c and ThThT_h. During a certain time, an amount QcQcQ_c of heat is releas

Nookie1986 [14]

The maximum amount of work performed is

$W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C$

Explanation:

The efficiency of a real heat engine is given by the equation:

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}$ (1)

where

$T_C$ is the temperature of the cold reservoir

$T_H$ is the temperature of the hot reservoir

However, the efficiency of a real heat engine can be also written as:

$\eta = \frac{W_{max}}{Q_H}$

where

$W_{max}$ is the maximum work done

$Q_H$ is the heat absorbed from the hot reservoir

$Q_H$ can be written as

$Q_H=W_{max}+Q_C$

where

$Q_C$ is the heat released to the cold reservoir

So the previous equation can be also written as

$\eta=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q_C}$ (2)

By combining eq.(1) and (2) we get

$1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q}$

And re-arranging the equation and solving for $W_{max}$ , we find

$W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C$

Three points A, B, and C of unknown charges are at the corners of an equilateral triangle.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: option d.

$Q_A= \frac{1}{2} Q_B=- \frac{1}{3} Q_C$

Explanation:

1) The direction of the field lines inform about the sign of the charges.

The field lines extend from the positive charges to the negative charges, so you can conclude that the charge C is positve and both charge A and charge B are negative:


Charge C: positive

Charge A: negative

Charge B: netative


2) The density of the lines (number of lines in a region) inform about the magnitude of the electric field.

Since the charges are at the same distance, the magnitude of the electric field informs directly about the magnitude of the force and that about the magnitude of the charges.

Since, there are the double of lines between C and B than between C and A, the magnitude of charge B is the double than the magnitud of charge A.

From the five options given (a throug e) the only that is consistent with that charges A and B have the same sign, that charge C has different sign, and that charge B is the double of charge A is:

$Q_A= \frac{1}{2} Q_B=- \frac{1}{3} Q_C$
