JEE Main & Advanced Physics Electrostatics & Capacitance Question Bank Electric Dipole

  • question_answer
    The distance between the two charges \[+q\] and \[-q\] of a dipole is \[r\]. On the axial line at a distance \[d\] from the centre of dipole, the intensity is proportional to [CPMT 1977]

    A)                    \[\frac{q}{{{d}^{2}}}\]

    B)                                      \[\frac{qr}{{{d}^{2}}}\]

    C)                    \[\frac{q}{{{d}^{3}}}\]

    D)                                      \[\frac{qr}{{{d}^{3}}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                        Field along the axis of the dipole \[E=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{2p}{{{d}^{3}}}=\frac{1}{4\pi {{\varepsilon }_{0}}}.\frac{2(q\times r)}{{{d}^{3}}};\] \ \[E\propto \frac{qr}{{{d}^{3}}}\]
