JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 2. Electric potential and capacitance
An electric field of \(1000\,V/m\) is applied to an electric dipole at angle of \(45^o\). The value of electric dipole moment is \(10^{-29}\, C.m.\) What is the potential energy of the electric dipole?
- A \( - 20 \times {10^{18}}\,J\)
- B \( - 7 \times {10^{-27}}\,J\)
- C \( - 10 \times {10^{-29}}\,J\)
- D \( - 9 \times {10^{-20}}\,J\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \( - 7 \times {10^{-27}}\,J\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(U = - \vec P \cdot \vec E\) \( = - PE\cos \theta \) \( = - \left( {{{10}^{ - 29}}} \right)\left( {{{10}^3}} \right)\cos {45^\circ }\) \( = - 0.707 \times {10^{ - 26}}\,{\text{J}}\) \( = - 7 \times {10^{ - 27}}\,{\text{J}}\)
