Question

An electric dipole is located along the y axis as shown in Figure P24.48. The magnitude of its electric dipole moment is defined as p = 2aq. (a) At a point P, which is far from the dipole (r ≫ a), show that the electric potential is
(b) Calculate the radial component Er and the perpendicular component Eθ of the associated electric field. Note that Eθ = −(1/r)(∂V/∂θ). Do these results seem reasonable for (c) θ = 90° and 0°? (d) For r = 0? (e) For the dipole arrangement shown in Figure P24.48, express V in terms of Cartesian coordinates using r = (x
