    Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct? If the electric field due to a point charge varies as r^(-2.5) instead of r^(-2),then the Gauss law will still be valid. The Gauss law can be used to calculate the field distribution around an electric dipole. If he electric field between two point charges is zero somewhere,then the sign of the two charges is the same. The work done by the external force is moving a unit positive charge from point A at potential "V_(A)" to point B at potential "V_(B)" is,(V_(B)-V_(A))
