    Total electric force on an electric dipole placed in an electric field of a point charge is -

    A) Always zero

    B) Never zero

    C) Zero when midpoint of dipole coincides with the point charge

    D) Zero when dipole axis is along any electric line of force

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [B] Electric field of a point charge is non uniform hence net force can never be zero Since \[F=-\frac{pdE}{dx}\]
