An electric dipole is placed at the origin parallel to X-axis. The angle made by the electric field with the X-axis at a point whose position vector makes an angle `60^(@)` with the X-axis is

A

`60^(@)`

B

`30^(@)`

C

`0^(@)`

D

`90^(@)`

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

D

An electric dipole is placed at the origin parallel to X-axis.

The angle made by the electron field with X-axis is, `theta =alpha + 60^(@)` [from figure]
`theta = 90^(@)`
