Question
At a point on the axis (but not inside the dipole and not at infinity) of an electric dipole
Options
A.The electric field is zero
B.The electric potential is zero
C.Neither the electric field nor the electric potential is zero
D.The electric field is directed perpendicular to the axis of the dipole
Solution
At a point ′P′ on axis of dipole electric field E =
and electric potential V = 
both nonzero and electric field along dipole on the axis.Create a free account to view solution
