NEET Physics (general) MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

Using the binomial approximation given by the NCERT context, what is the expression for the potential V at a large distance r from a dipole with dipole moment p, when the angle θ between the dipole axis and the position vector is small?

A

V = (p cos θ) / (4πε₀r²)

B

V = (2p cos θ) / (4πε₀r²)

C

V = (p sin θ) / (4πε₀r²)

D

V = (p cos θ) / (2πε₀r²)

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The NCERT context provides the formula V = (p cos θ) / (4πε₀r²) using the binomial approximation for potential due to a dipole at large distance.
