An electric dipole of moment $\overrightarrow{p} = (-\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 2\hat{k}) \times 10^{-29} \; C \cdot m$ is at the origin $(0, 0, 0)$. The electric field due to this dipole at $\overrightarrow{r} = \hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}$ (note that $\overrightarrow{r} \cdot \overrightarrow{p} = 0$) is parallel to

  • A
    $(-\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - 2\hat{k})$
  • B
    $(\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} - 2\hat{k})$
  • C
    $(\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} - 2\hat{k})$
  • D
    $(-\hat{i} - 3\hat{j} + 2\hat{k})$

Mention the directions of the electric field on the axis and on the equator of an electric dipole.

An electric dipole of moment $\vec{P}$ is placed in a uniform electric field $\vec{E}$ such that $\vec{P}$ points along $\vec{E}$. If the dipole is slightly rotated about an axis perpendicular to the plane containing $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{P}$ and passing through the centre of the dipole, the dipole executes simple harmonic motion. Consider $I$ to be the moment of inertia of the dipole about the axis of rotation. What is the time period of such oscillation?
