Show that the force acting on electric dipole placed in a uniform electric field is zero |
|
Answer» forces experienced by the 2 charges CONSTITUTING the ELECTRIC dipole when placed in an uniform external electric field are equal and opposite in nature, the net force on the dipole is zero.2) angle of rotation = 180thantorque = PE sin180 = 0No TORQUE act on the dipole when the moment of electric dipole is parallel to the electric field. |
