Question

Why an electric dipole placed in uniform electric field does not undergoes acceleration?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Beacause the force F=qE on positive charge and force F= -qE on negative charge and these force act on dipole equal and opposite at 180° degree angle in uniform electric field.

Fnet on dipole always zero and dipole dose not undergos accleration.

Thank you.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Because the force on negative charge and the force on positive charge equal and opposite direction so it does not undergo acceleration because Force net is always zero.
