Electric Charges and Fields - Result Question 28

28. A point Q lies on the perpendicular bisector of an electrical dipole of dipole moment p. If the distance of Q from the dipole is r (much larger than the size of the dipole), then the electric field at Q is proportional to

(a) p1 and r2

(c) p2 and r3

(b) p and r2

(d) p and r3

Answer:

Correct Answer: 28. (d)

Solution:

  1. (d) Electric field at equatorial point

Eeq=1p4πEo(r2+l2)3/2

E=p4πε0r3[ For r»l]

Apparently, Ep and E1r3r3.
