Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct ?

A

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.

B

The Gauss law can be used to calculate the field distribution around an electric dipole.

C

If the electric field between two point charges is zero somewhere, then the sign of the two charges is the same.

D

The work done by the external force in moving a unit positive charge from point a at potential `V_(A)` to point B at potential `V_(B)` is `(V_(B)-V_(A))`.
