NEET 2023 Phase 1 · PhysicsDipole potentialPrevious Year Question
An electric dipole is placed as shown in the figure. The electric potential (in 10² V) at point P due to the dipole is (ε₀ = permittivity of free space and K = 1/(4πε₀)):
Answer: (A) (3/8) qK. Answer: (a) Solution: Net potential at P = Kq(1/r₊ − 1/r₋); the figure distances give Kq(1/2 − 1/8) = Kq(3/8) (in units of 10² V).

- A.(3/8) qK✓
- B.(5/8) qK
- C.(8/5) qK
- D.(8/3) qK
Correct Answer
(A) (3/8) qK
Solution & Explanation
Answer: (a) Solution: Net potential at P = Kq(1/r₊ − 1/r₋); the figure distances give Kq(1/2 − 1/8) = Kq(3/8) (in units of 10² V). → option (a).

PhysAn electric dipole with dipole moment 5 × 10⁻⁶ C·m is aligned with the direction of a uniform electric field of magnitude 4 × 10⁵ N/C. The dipole is then rotated through an angle of 60° with respect to the electric field. The change in the potential energy of the dipole is:PhysAssertion A: The potential (V) at any axial point, at 2m distance (r) from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector P of magnitude 4 × 10⁻⁶ Cm, is ±9 × 10³ V (Take 1/4πε₀ = 9 × 10⁹ SI units). Reason R: V = ±2P/(4πε₀ r²), where r is the distance of any axial point situated at 2m from the centre of the dipole.PhysA dipole is placed in an electric field as shown. In which direction will it move?PhysA short electric dipole has a dipole moment of 16 × 10⁻⁹ Cm. The electric potential due to the dipole at a point at a distance of 0.6 m from the centre of the dipole, situated on a line making an angle of 60 degrees with the dipole axis is: (1/4*π*eps0 = 9 × 10⁹ N M² / C²)PhysTwo identical charged conducting spheres A and B have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is q and the force of repulsion between them is F. A third identical uncharged conducting sphere is brought in contact with sphere A first and then with B and finally removed from both. New force of repulsion between spheres A and B (radii negligible vs separation, treated as point charges) is best given as:PhysThe plates of a parallel plate capacitor are separated by d. Two slabs of different dielectric constant K1 and K2 with thickness 3d/8 and d/2 respectively are inserted in the capacitor. Due to this, the capacitance becomes two times larger than when there is nothing between the plates. If K1/K2 = 1.25, the value of K1 is:PhysA sphere of radius R is carved out of a uniform solid sphere of radius 2R (internally tangent, so its centre is at distance R from the big centre). The ratio of the moment of inertia of the small sphere to that of the remaining part, both about the Y-axis through the big sphere's centre, is:PhysThe Sun rotates once in 27 days. If it expanded to twice its present radius (uniform-density sphere, no external influence), its new period would be about:
