Question

how much work is done in deflecting an electric dipole of diploe moment p in a uniform electric field E through 180 degree from equilibrium position
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Work done due to dipole =W=−pEcosθ where p= dipole moment, E= electric field

Here, W=W

(180)

−W

(0)

=(−pEcos180)−(−pEcos0)=pE+pE=2pE
