Question

For an electric dipole in a non-uniform electric field with dipole moment parallel to direction of the field, the force F and torque τ on the dipole respectively are ___________.
Fill in the blank with the correct answer from the options given below.

A.

F=0, τ=0

B.

F≠0, τ=0

C.

F=0, τ≠0

D.

F≠0, τ≠0

Correct option is B

For an electric dipole in a non-uniform electric field with dipole moment parallel to direction of the field, The force F will be there and the direction of electric field and dipole moment is same, so angle will be zero between them, therefore no torque will be developed.
