A sample of HCI gas is placed in a uniform electric field of magnitude 3xx10^(4)N.C^(-1) . The dipole moment of each HCI molecule is 3.4xx10^(-39) Cm. Calculate the maximum torque experienced each HCI molecule.

Answer»

Solution :The maximum torque experienced by the dipole is when it is aligned PERPENDICULAR to the applied field
`tau_("MAX.)=pEsin 90^(@)=3.4xx10^(-30)xx3xx10^(4)`NM
`tau_("max")=10.2xx10^(-26)`Nm
