An electric diposle is placed at the cetre of a sphere . Mark the correct answer .

A

the flux of the electric field through the sphere is zero

B

the electric field is zero at every point of the sphere .

C

the electric potential is zero everywhere on sphere

D

the electric potential is zero on a circle on the surface ,

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, D
Charge enclosed is zero so flux will be zero
`V= (KP (cos theta))/r^2`

Potential will be zero on circle on sphere lying in equatorial plane .

An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a sphere. Select the correct alternative(s).

An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a sphere. Find the electric flux passing through the sphere.

Given below are two statements : Statement I : An electric dipole is placed at the centre of a hollow sphere. The flux of electric field through the sphere is zero but the electric field is not zero anywhere in the sphere. Statement II : If R is the radius of a solid metallic sphere and Q be the total charge on it. The electric field at any point on the spherical surface of radius r (lt R) is zero but the electric flux passing through this closed spherical surface of radius r is not zero. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
