A non-polar molecule with polarzabillity beta is located at a great distance l from a polar molecule with electric moment p. Find the magnitude of the interactionforce betweenthe molecules if the vector p si oriented along astraight line passing through both molecules.

Answer»

Solution :From the genral formula
`VEC(E) = (1)/(4pi epsilon_(0)) (3 vec(p). vec(r ). vec(r ) - vec(p) r^(2))/(r^(5))`
`vec(E) = (1)/(4pi epsilon_(0)) (2vec(p))/(l^(3))`, where `r = l`, and `vec(r ) uarr uarr vec(p)`
This will cause the induction of a dipole moment.
`vec(p_("ind")) = BETA (1)/(4pi epsilon_(0)) (2 vec(p))/(l^(3)) xx epsilon_(0)`
THUS the force,
`vec(F) = (beta)/(4pi ) (2P)/(l^(3)) (del)/(del l) (1)/(4pi epsilon_(0)) (2p)/(l^(3)) = (3 beta p^(2))/(4pi^(2) epsilon_(0) l^(7))`
