Detailed Solution

The magnitude of the electric field of a short dipole at an equatorial point at a distance r from its center is Eequi =kpr3 For a point on the equatorial line of the dipole, the direction of electric field (E) is along a line parallel to the axis of dipole directed opposite to the direction of dipole moment (P) and is perpendicular to the equitorial line
