Question

Let Ea be the electron field due to a dipole in is axial plane distantl and Eq be the field in the equatorial plant distant l′, then the relation between Ea and Eq will be:

Options

A.Ea = 4Eq
B.Eq = 2Ea
C.Ea = 2Eq
D.Eq = 3Ea

Solution

We know that for short dipole, field at axial point, Eq =
and field at equatorial point, Eq =
So, Eq = 2Eq
