A short electric dipole has a dipole moment of . The electric potential due to the dipole at a point at a distance of from the centre of the dipole situated on a line making an angle of with the dipole axis is:
zero
The electric potential due to a short electric dipole at a distance from the centre and at an angle with the dipole axis is given by the formula: [NCERT Class 12, Physics Part I, Sec 2.4, Eq 2.15]
Given Data: Dipole moment, Distance, Angle, Coulomb constant,
Calculation: Substitute the values into the formula: Simplify the expression (note and ):
