1.	The potential due to a dipole at a point P from it is the(a) Sum of potentials at the charges(b) Difference of potentials at the charges(c) Multiplication of potentials at the charges(d) Ratio of potentials at the chargesI have been asked this question during an interview.Question is from Electric Dipole topic in section Electrostatic Fields of Electromagnetic Theory
Answer» Correct choice is (b) Difference of potentials at the charges The explanation is: The total potential at the point P due to the dipole is given by the difference of the potentials of the individual charges. V = V1 + (-V2), SINCE both the charges are UNLIKE. Thus V = V1 – V2.
