उत्तर

An electric dipole of dipole moment 2 × 10-8 C-m in a uniform electric field experiences a maximum torque of 6 × 10-4 N-m. The magnitude of the electric field is 3.0 × 104 Vm-1.

Explanation:

Given: Electric dipole moment,

`p = 2 xx 10^-8` N/C

Maximum torque, `tau = 6 xx 10^-4` N-m

θ = 90°

Electric field, E = ?

The torque acting on the dipole:

τ = pE sinθ

⇒ `6 xx 10^-4 = 2 xx 10^-8 xx E`

⇒ E = `3 xx 10^4` Vm-1
