JEE MAIN - Physics (2006 - No. 32)
An electric dipole is placed at an angle of $${30^ \circ }$$ to a non-uniform electric field. The dipole will experience
a translation force only in the direction of the field
a translation force only in a direction normal to the direction of the field
a torque as well as a translational force
a torque only
स्पष्टीकरण
The electric field will be different at the location of the two charges. Therefore the two forces will be unequal. This will result in a force as well as torque.
