MCQ
An electric dipole placed in a non-uniform electric field can experience:
- AA force but not a torque.
- BA torque but not a force.
- CAlways a force and a torque.
- DNeither a force nor a torque.
✓
Answer
- Always a force and a torque.
Explanation:
Electric dipole,
Two equal and opposite charges seperated by small distance.
Wherein,
As the dipole will feel two forces which are although opposite but not equal.
A net force will be there and as these forces act at different points of a body. A torque is also there.
