The electric field due to an electric dipole at a distance 
from its centre in axial position is 
. If the dipole is rotated through an angle of 
about its perpendicular axis, then the magnitude of electric field at the same point will be;
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
If dipole is rotated through an angle of 
about its perpendicular axis, then given point comes on equatorial line. So, field becomes half of previous value, i.e. 
.
