10.

Two charges each of equal magnitude 3.2 x 10-19 coulomb but of opposite sign form an electric dipole. The distance between the two charges is 2.4 A. If the dipole is placed in an electric field of 5 x 105 volt/metre, then in equilibrium its potential energy will be

  • 3 × 15-23 joule

  • -3.84 × 10-23 joule

  • -6 × 10-23 joule 

  • -2 × 10-26 joule 


B.

-3.84 × 10-23 joule

For an electric dipole to be in stable equilibrium, we have 

Potential energy U = -pE

                           = -2qlE

                           = -q × 2l × E

Here: q = 3.2 × 10-19 coulomb, 2l = 2.4 A

            = 2.4 × 10-10 m

         E = 5 × 105 volt/metre

     U = 3.2 × 10-19 × 2.4 × 10-10 × 5×105 J

            = -3.84 × 10-23 J
