Question
An electric dipole consists of charges 
separated by a distance of 
. It is placed near a long line charge of linear charge density 
as shown in figure, such that the negative charge is at a distance of 2.0 cm from the line charge. Find the force acting on the dipole
- 0.6 N to wards the line charge
- 0.1 N away from the line charge
- 0.9 N to wards the line charge
- 1.5 N away from the line charge
The correct answer is: 0.6 N to wards the line charge
