An electric dipole of moment \(\vec {p} \) is lying along a uniform electric field \(\vec{E}\). The work done in rotating the dipole by \(90^{\circ}\) is:

The electric potential at a point in free space due to a charge \(Q\) coulomb is \(Q\times10^{11}~\text{V}\). The electric field at that point is:
1. \(4\pi \varepsilon_0 Q\times 10^{22}~\text{V/m}\)
2. \(12\pi \varepsilon_0 Q\times 10^{20}~\text{V/m}\)

2. | \(100\) V/m, pointing towards the negative \(x\text-\)axis |
3. | \(200\) V/m, making an angle \(60^\circ\) with the \(x\text-\)axis |
4. | \(100\) V/m, making an angle \(30^\circ\) with the \(x\text-\)axis |
Four electric charges \(+ q,\) \(+ q,\) \(- q\) and \(- q\) are placed at the corners of a square of side \(2L\) (see figure). The electric potential at point \(A\), mid-way between the two charges \(+ q\) and \(+ q\) is:
1. \(\frac{1}{4 \pi\varepsilon_{0}} \frac{2 q}{L} \left(1 + \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\right)\)
2. \(\frac{1}{4 \pi\varepsilon_{0}} \frac{2 q}{L} \left(1 - \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\right)\)
3. zero
4. \(\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_{0}} \frac{2 q}{L} \left(1 + \sqrt{5}\right)\)
In the given figure if \(V = 4~\text{volt}\) each plate of the capacitor has a surface area of\(10^{-2}~\text{m}^2\) and the plates are \(0.1\times10^{-3}~\text{m}\)apart, then the number of excess electrons on the negative plate is:
1. | \(V={p\cos \theta \over 4 \pi \varepsilon_0r^2}\) | 2. | \(V={p\cos \theta \over 4 \pi \varepsilon_0r}\) |
3. | \(V={p\sin \theta \over 4 \pi \varepsilon_0r}\) | 4. | \(V={p\cos \theta \over 2 \pi \varepsilon_0r^2}\) |
Two thin dielectric slabs of dielectric constants \(K_1~\text{and}~K_2(K_{1} < K_{2})\) are inserted between plates of a parallel capacitor, as shown in the figure. The variation of electric field \(E\) between the plates with distance \(d\) as measured from plate \(P\) is correctly shown by:
1. | ![]() |

3. | \(\mathrm{Q} / 4 \pi \varepsilon_{\mathrm{O}} \mathrm{R}\) and \(\mathrm{Q} / 4 \pi \varepsilon_{\mathrm{o}} \mathrm{R}^2\) |
4. | Both are zero |
An electric dipole of moment \(p\) is placed in an electric field of intensity \(E\). The dipole acquires a position such that the axis of the dipole makes an angle \(\theta\) with the direction of the field. Assuming that the potential energy of the dipole to be zero when \(\theta = 90^{\circ},\) the torque and the potential energy of the dipole will respectively be:
1. | \(p E \sin \theta,-p E \cos \theta\) | 2. | \(p E \sin \theta,-2 p E \cos \theta\) |
3. | \(p E \sin \theta, 2 p E \cos \theta\) | 4. | \(p E \cos \theta,-p E \sin \theta\) |
