For an electric dipole potential & electric field

An electric dipole moment p is placed in an electric field of intensity 'E' . The dipole acquires a position such that the axis of the dipole makes an angle theta with the direction of the field. Assuming that the potential energy of the dipole to be zero when theta= 90^(@) , the torque and the potential energy of the dipole will respectively be

Electric Field due to Dipole

The variation of electric potential for an electric field directed parallel to the x - axis is shown in (Fig. 3.110). Draw the variation of electric field strength with the x- axis. .

There is one short electric dipole placed on a plane. A straight line is drawn on this plane passing through the centre of electric dipole making an angle theta with the axis of dipole. A point P is selected on this line at a distance ten times the length of electric dipole from centre of electric dipole. Electric field intensity at the point P makes an angle alpha with the axis of electric dipole . What will be the magnitude of (tan theta)/(tan alpha) ?

The electric field at a point due to an electric dipole, on an axis inclined at an angle theta ( lt 90^(@)) to the dipole axis, is perpendicular to the dipole axis, if the angle theta is

Electric field intensity (E) due to an electric dipole varies with distance (r) of the point from the center of dipole as :
