  • A
    the electric field strength is zero
  • B
    the electric potential is zero
  • C
    both electric potential and electric field strength are zero
  • D
    both electric potential and electric field strength are non-zero

For a short dipole placed at origin $O$,the dipole moment $P$ is along the $x$-axis,as shown in the figure. If the electric potential and electric field at point $A$ (at distance $r$ on the $x$-axis) are $V_0$ and $E_0$,respectively,then the correct combination of the electric potential and electric field,respectively,at point $B$ (at distance $2r$ on the $y$-axis) is given by

Three point charges $+q$,$-2q$ and $+q$ are placed at points $(x = 0, y = a, z = 0)$,$(x = 0, y = 0, z = 0)$ and $(x = a, y = 0, z = 0)$ respectively. The magnitude and direction of the electric dipole moment vector of this charge assembly are

Two opposite and equal charges $4 \times 10^{-8} \, C$ are placed $2 \times 10^{-2} \, cm$ apart,forming a dipole. If this dipole is placed in an external electric field of $4 \times 10^8 \, N/C$,what are the values of the maximum torque and the work done in rotating it through $180^\circ$?
