An electric dipole of dipole moment P is kept perpendicular to the plane of 2 large charged conducting

plates as shown. The potential energy of the dipole is given as

Answer:

Solution:

Here angle θ between $P$ and $E$ is 0°

∴ $U = - PE cos θ$

$= - (\frac{σ}{ε _{0}}) P$

$= - \frac{σ P}{ε _{0}}$
