Question
The force between two short electric dipoles separated by a distance r is directly proportional to :
Options
A.r2
B.r4
C.r-2
D.r-4
Solution
Force on one dipole due to another
= P
where E is field due to second dipole at first dipole.
E ∝
∴ 
∴ Force 
= P
where E is field due to second dipole at first dipole. E ∝
∴ ∴ Force Create a free account to view solution
