An electric dipole is formed from ±1.00nC charges spaced 4.00 mm apart.

\

 The dipole is at the origin, oriented along the x-axis. What is the electric field strength at the point

\
( x, y ) = ( 14.0 cmcm , 0 cm )
\
\
( x, y ) = ( 0 cm, 14.0)
\
cm
\
\

\

Step 1:\"\"\"\"

\

The dipole is at the origin and oriented along the \"\"-axis, and so the point \"\" along the axis of dipole.

\

The electric field is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\".

\

The electric field strength at \"\" is \"\".

\

Step 2:

\

The dipole is at the origin and oriented along the \"\"-axis, and so the point \"\" is perpendicular to to the dipole.

\

The electric field is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

\"\".\"\"

\

The electric field strength at \"\" is \"\".

\

Solution:

\

The electric field strength at \"\" is \"\".

\

The electric field strength at \"\" is \"\".

\

along the axis of dipole.
