Electric Field On The Equatorial Of The Dipole Class 12 Physics Chapter 1 Electric Charges and Fields Notes

#6. Electric Field On The Equatorial Of The Dipole

electric field on the equatorial of dipole
In this case we determine the electric field at a point P which is located on the perpendicular bisector of the line joining two charges. Let the distance of point P from this line be r. 
Equation of electric field

E.F due to +q charge at point P

E.F due to -q charge at point P
Hence the direction of electric field due to +q charge and -q charge is different, it can be resolved into vertical and horizontal components. 

The direction of  dipole moment (P) is from -q to +q and resultant electric field is in direction opposite to the electric dipole moment so negative sign is used (-p) to indicate the direction.

Energy Stored In A Capacitor Class 12 Physics Electrostatic Potential And Capacitance

Energy Stored In A Capacitor     We have already studied that capacitors store electrostatic energy in it. Today we will learn how they store energy? and how much energy can be store in a capacitor? As always to find the energy we have to find the work done. So, consider a small positive charge +dQ, work has to be done to transfer this small +dQ to move towards this positive plate(because it's against the electric field). This work is stored as potential energy. Work done W = charge X potential i.e, W =qV Here charge is dQ so we can write dW = dQ V = dQ Q/C               ( from equation Q = CV ) integrating on both sides we get  This equation consisted to be general equation. By substituting values of Q and C we get other 2 forms of energy stored in capacitor    applying Q = CV in equation (1) applying C = Q/V in equation (1)     Prev      Next You may be Interested In  Physics Previous Question Papers With Answers Browse more topics under Electrostatic Potential & Capacitance

Equipotential Surface Class 12 Physics Electrostatic Potential Surfaces And Capacitance

#4. Equipotential Surface Equipotential is the surface which has equal potential at every point on it. Equipotential surface due to a single point charge are concentric spheres having the charge at the center. All the points on a sphere around a point charge have the same distance (radius) so all have same potential. Equipotential surface for a line charge is cylinder  Properties of Equipotential Surface Work done for moving a charge on an equipotential surface is zero The potential difference between any two points on equipotential surface is zero  Electric Field is always perpendicular to an equipotential surface Equipotential surface for a single point charge are concentric spheres having the charge at the center Two equipotential surfaces can never intersect.  Browse more topics under Electrostatic Potential & Capacitance Electrostatic Potential, Potential Energy, Potential Energy Difference Potential Due To A Point Charge Potential Due To An Electric Dipole Equipotential Surfa
