प्रश्न
An electric dipole of length 4 cm, when placed with its axis making an angle of 60° with a uniform electric field, experiences a torque of `4sqrt3`Nm. Calculate the potential energy of the dipole, if it has charge ±8 nC

उत्तर
Torque, τ=PEsinθ=(Ql)Esinθ ...(1)
Here, l is the length of the dipole, Q is the charge and E is the electric field.
Potential energy, U=−PEcosθ=−(Ql)Ecosθ ...(2)
Dividing (2) by (1):
`T/U=((Ql)Esintheta)/(-(Ql)Ecostheta)=-tantheta`
`=>U=-T/(tantheta)`
`=>U=-T/(tan60^@)`
`=>U=(-4sqrt3)/sqrt3`
⇒U=−4 J

An electric dipole of dipole moment`vecp` consists of point charges +q and −q separated by a distance 2a apart. Deduce the expression for the electric field `vecE` due to the dipole at a distance x from the centre of the dipole on its axial line in terms of the dipole moment `vecp`. Hence show that in the limit x>> a, `vecE->2vecp"/"(4piepsilon_0x^3)`
