Three charges are arranged on the vertices of a right-angled triangle as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the dipole moment of the combination in the unit of $C-cm$ is:

  • A
    $5 \sqrt{3} q$
  • B
    $5 q$
  • C
    $10 q$
  • D
    $10 \sqrt{3} q$

In the situation shown in the diagram,if $q \ll |Q|$ and $r \gg a$,find the net force on the free charge $-q$ and the net torque on it about $O$ at the instant shown. ($p = 2aQ$ is the dipole moment).

$A$ molecule with a dipole moment $p$ is placed in an electric field of strength $E$. Initially,the dipole is aligned parallel to the field. If the dipole is to be rotated to be anti-parallel to the field,the work required to be done by an external agent is:

An electric dipole of mass $m$,charge $q$,and length $l$ is placed in a uniform electric field $\vec{E} = E_0 \hat{i}$. When the dipole is rotated slightly from its equilibrium position and released,the time period of its oscillations will be:

An electric dipole consists of two particles, each of mass $1 \ kg$, separated by $1 \ m$, carrying charges $1 \ \mu C$ and $-1 \ \mu C$ respectively. It is in equilibrium in a uniform electric field of $2 \times 10^4 \ Vm^{-1}$. If it is deflected by a small angle $2^{\circ}$, the minimum time taken by it to come back again to the mean position is (in seconds): (in $\pi$)
