Question

An electric dipole placed in a uniform electric field parallel to the field experience

Answer 1

✨ Answer ✨

When electric field is not uniform, the net force will be non-zero, there will also be torque on the system.

When dipole moment p is parallel or anti-parallel to external field E, the net torque is zero, but there is a force on the dipole E which is not uniform. It is seen that when p is parallel to E, dipole has a net force in the direction of increasing field and when p is antiparallel to E, the net force on dipole is in the direction of decreasing field. Force depends on the orientation of dipole moment with respect to the external field.
