Question

What is the electric dipole moment of an electric dipole is placed in a uniform electric field (e) making an angle with the field what is(1)net force (2) torque on the dipole what will happen if the dipole left free in the field

Answer 1

EDM=product of either charge and separation distance between them.... when electric dipole placed in uniform electric field it experience torque... torque is maximum at 90 degree. torque is zero at 180 degree
