Question

[Case Study, Q30 contd.] (iii) Two identical short electric dipoles, each of dipole moment $\vec p$, are arranged perpendicular to each other such that their negative charges coincide. Find the magnitude of the net dipole moment of this arrangement.

Accepted Answer

Step 1: Since the two dipole moment vectors are perpendicular to each other (each of magnitude $p$), the resultant is found by vector addition of perpendicular vectors.

Step 2: $p_{net} = \sqrt{p^2+p^2} = p\sqrt2$.

Step 3: Answer: (C) $p\sqrt2$.
