QAIPM-2001-Ph-2920: NEET 2001 Physics - Class 12 AIPM-2001-Ph-2920 Solution: A dipole of dipole moment \( {p}\) is placed in uniform…

A dipole of dipole moment p⃗\vec{p} is placed in uniform electric field E⃗\vec{E} then torque acting on it is given by

Multiple Choice Options

  • A τ⃗=p⃗⋅E⃗\vec{\tau}=\vec{p}\cdot\vec{E}
  • B τ⃗=p⃗×E⃗\vec{\tau}=\vec{p}\times\vec{E}
  • C τ⃗=p⃗+E⃗\vec{\tau}=\vec{p}+\vec{E}
  • D τ⃗=p⃗−E⃗\vec{\tau}=\vec{p}-\vec{E}

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

When an electric dipole is placed in a uniform electrical field E _ , the torque on the dipole is given by _ _ = p _ _ E _
