Electric potential at an equatorial point of a small dipole with dipole moment $P$ ( $r$ , distance from the dipole) is
A
Zero
B
$\frac {P}{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r^2}$
C
$\frac {P}{4\pi {\varepsilon _0}r^3}$
D
$\frac {2P}{4 \pi {\varepsilon _0}r^3}$
Solution
Electric potential at equatorial point of a small dipole moment $=P(\text { at } r)$
As we have learned, if, $r > > 1$
$E_{a x i}=\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} \frac{2 P}{r^{3}}$
$V_{a x i}=\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_{0}} \frac{P}{r^{2}}$
where,
angle between $E_{a x i}$ and $P$ will be $0$
