Electric field at the equator of a dipole is E. If strength and distance is now doubled then the electric field will be :

Electric field due to an electric dipole is

For an electric dipole potential & electric field

Assertion: The electric field due to dipole on its axis line at a distance r is E . Then electric field due to the same dipole on the equatorial line and at the same distance will be (E )/(2) Reason: Electric field due to dipole varies inversely as the square of distance.

The distance of the field point in the equatorial of a small electric dipole is halved. By what factor does the electric field due to the dipole change?

The electric field and the potential of an electric dipole vary with distance r as

Electric field strength E due to a short dipole at a distance r from it are related as:
