Question

An electric dipole is formed from two charges, ±q, spaced a distance s apart. The distance  s is small compared to 10 cm. The dipole is at the origin, and the dipole moment  p⃗   points in the y-direction. The electric field strength at the point   P:(x,y)=(0cm,10cm) is 320 N/C

1.

The two charges, ±q, are spaced a distance s apart. The dipole moment  p⃗   is rotated  90∘ so it points in the +x-direction. What is the electric field  E⃗   at the point  P:(x,y)=(0cm,10cm) ? Give your answer in N/C.

Give the x and y components of E⃗ , using a comma between them.

2.

What is the magnitude of the dipole moment for the two charges, ±q, spaced a distance s apart?

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Thanks for your time. Please include all units.
