A non-uniform electric field is represented by vecE = 5xhati Vm^(-1) . An electric dipole having moment. P = 20 xx 10^(-20) cm is placed at an angle of 60° with the field. The net force on the dipole is.........N.

Answer»

`10^(-19) hati`
`100 xx 10^(-19)hati`
zero
`5 xx 10^(-19) hati`

Solution :The net FORCE exerts on a electric dipole in nonuniform electric field.
`=q(2A COS THETA) (dvecE)/(dx)`

`=p costheta =(dvecE)/(dx)`
`=20 xx 10^(-20) xx cos 60^(@) xx 5hati (therefore vecE = 5xhati)`
`=5 xx 10^(-19) hati N`
