A) a translational force only in the direction of the field
B) a translational force only in a direction normal to the direction of the field
C) a torque as well as a translational force
D) a torque only
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
In a non-uniform electric field, the dipole may experience both non-zero torque as well as translational force. For example as shown in figure, \[{{F}_{1}}\ne {{F}_{2}}\] as E is non-uniform. Torque would also be non-zero.You need to login to perform this action.
