Write an expression (derivation not required) for intensity of electric field in :
(1) Axial position.
(2) Broad side position of an electric dipole, in terms of its length (2a) dipole moment (p) and distance (r).
(ii) What is the ratio of these two intensities i.e., `E_(1):E_(2)`, for a short electric dipole ?

To solve the problem, we need to derive the expressions for the intensity of the electric field at the axial and broadside positions of an electric dipole and then find the ratio of these two intensities. ### Step 1: Electric Field Intensity at Axial Position (E₁) 1. **Definition of Electric Dipole**: An electric dipole consists of two equal and opposite charges, +q and -q, separated by a distance of 2a. The dipole moment \( p \) is given by: \[ p = q \cdot 2a \] ...
