The value of electric potential at any point due to any electric dipole is

A

`k ( vec(p) xx vec(r))/(r^(2))`

B

`k(vec(p) xx vec(r))/(x^(2))`

C

`k(vec(p) .(-vec(r)))/(r^(2))`

D

`k(vec(p).vec(r))/(r^(3))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`V=k (vecp. Vec r)/r^3= (k p r cos theta)/r^3=k (p cos theta)/r^2`
