Question

An electric dipole experiencing maximum torque in uniform electric field possesses-----------potential

energy.

Answer 1

Answer: 0

Explanation: Torque on dipole in electric field is vector product of dipole moment(p) and electric field(E) ⇔P×E, it is maximum when P and E  are perpendicular i.e sinФ=1,cosФ=0 and magnitude of potential energy is       P.E ie,pEcosФ=0                                                                                                 so potential energy is 0
