Three charges are arranged on the vertices of an equilateral triangle. Find the dipole moment of the combination. |
$2 qd$ $3 qd$ $\sqrt{3} qd$ $\sqrt{2} qd$ |
$\sqrt{3} qd$ |
The correct answer is Option (3) → $\sqrt{3} qd$ $\left|\vec P_{net}\right|=2×(qd)\cos 30°$ $=2×qd×\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ $=\sqrt{3}qd$ |
