Application +4 | -1
A point charge placed at any point on the axis of an electric dipole at some large distance experiences a force FF. Find the force acting on the point charge when it's distance from the dipole is doubled.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Fβ€²=F8F^{\prime}=\frac{F}{8}
Option C (Fβ€²=F8F^{\prime}=\frac{F}{8}) is correct because the force on a point charge due to an electric dipole varies inversely with the cube of the distance.
