Potential energy of an electric dipole held at an angle `theta` in a uniform electric is zero when `theta` =

An electric dipole placed at an angle theta in a non- uniform electric field experiences :

Prove that the net force acting on an electric dipole, inclined at an angle theta to the uniform electric field vecE is zero. Draw a suitable diagram.

Derive equation of potential energy of an electric dipole in a uniform electric field .

When is the potential energy of an electric dipole maximum, when placed in uniform electric field?

The potential energy of an electric dipole in a uniform electric filed is U .The magnitude of the torque acting on the dipole due to the field is N .Then

Derive the expression for the potential energy of an electric dipole of dipole moment vec(p) placed in a uniform electric field vec(E ) .

An electric dipole is held at an angle theta in a uniform electric field E. Will there be any (i) net translating force (ii) torque acting on in ? Explain.
