Physics · Electrostatic Potential
हिन्दीGiven below are two statements: Statement I: The potential due to a dipole at any point depends on the position vector magnitude \( r \) and the angle \( \theta \) between \( \mathbf{r} \) and dipole moment \( \mathbf{p} \). Statement II: The electric field of a dipole at a point depends only on the magnitude \( r \) and is independent of angle \( \theta \). In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Correct answer · Option 3
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation
Statement I is correct. Statement II is incorrect because both electric field and potential of a dipole depend on both \( r \) and \( \theta \).
