Assertion: On going away from a point charge or a small electric dipole, electric field decreases at the same rate in both the cases Reason: Electric field is inversly proportional to square of distance from the charge or an electric dipole.

STATEMENT-1 : Electric field at a point due to an infinite sheet of uniformly distributed charge is independent of distance between the point from the sheet. STATEMENT-2 : Electric field at a pont due to an uniformly distributed long charged rod is inversity proportional to distance between the point and rod. STATEMENT-3 : Electric field at a point due to an electric dipole is inversely proportional to the cube of distance between point and centre of dipole.
