The electric potential for an electric dipole

  1. A varies inversely with the distance from the center of the dipole on the equatorial line.
  2. B is a vector quantity
  3. C is zero at mid-point on the line, joining two charges of dipole
  4. D has a direction from charge -q towards +q
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) is zero at mid-point on the line, joining two charges of dipole

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(V = V_+ + V_-\) \(V = \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \frac{q}{a} + \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0} \frac{-q}{a}\) \(V = 0\)
