Q. A short electric dipole has a dipole moment of $16 \times 10^{-9}$ C m. The electric potential due to the dipole at a point at a distance of 0.6 m from the centre of the dipole, situated on a line making an angle of 60° with the dipole axis is : ($\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9$ N $m^2/C^2$)

A) 200 V
B) 400 V
C) zero
D) 50 V
Explanation

[Solution] $V = \frac{kp\cos\theta}{r^2} = \frac{9 \times 10^9 \times 16 \times 10^{-9} \times 0.5}{0.36} = 200$ V. Answer (1).
