Question

An electric dipole of moment   is placed in a uniform electric field . The maximum potential energy of  the dipole is

(a)  pE                                    (b)2pE
(c) -pE                                     (d)2pE​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The potential energy of electric dipole is the product of the dipole moment and electric field. (I). When the angle between the dipole moment and electric field is 180° then the potential energy of electric dipole is maximum.
