Q.

A short electric dipole has a dipole moment of 16×10-9C 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 (14πε0=9×109 N m2/C2)            [2020]

1 50 V  
2 200 V  
3 400 V  
4 zero

Potential due to dipole, V=p·r^4πε0r2=kpcosθr2

or    V=(9×109)(16×10-9)×cos60°(0.6)2=200V
