Question
ICSEENIPH12029766

(i) Write an expression (derivation not required) for intensity of electric field in:

(1) Axial position.

(2) Broad side position of an electric dipole, in terms of its length (2a) dipole moment (p) and distance (r).

Solution

1.
Intensity of electric field in axial position is: 
E1fraction numerator 1 over denominator 4 πε subscript straight o end fraction space open parentheses fraction numerator 2 P subscript r over denominator left parenthesis r squared space minus space a squared right parenthesis squared end fraction close parentheses ; p is the dipole moment
2.
Broad Side:
straight E subscript 2 space equals space fraction numerator 1 over denominator 4 πε subscript straight o end fraction space open square brackets fraction numerator straight P over denominator left parenthesis straight r squared space plus space straight a squared right parenthesis to the power of bevelled 3 over 2 end exponent end fraction close square brackets

A point charge of 5 x 10-6 C experiences a force of 2 x 10-3 N when kept in a uniform electric field of intensity E. Find E.

Solution

Electric field Intensity,
E = fraction numerator 2 space straight x space 10 to the power of negative 3 end exponent over denominator 5 space straight x space 10 to the power of negative 6 end exponent end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 2 space x 10 cubed over denominator 5 end fraction equals 400 space V divided by m
