JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 10th January Morning Slot - No. 25)

Two electric dipoles, A, B with respective dipole moments $${\overrightarrow d _A} = - 4qai$$ and $${\overrightarrow d _B} = - 2qai$$ are placed on the x-axis with a separation R, as shown in the figure. The distance from A at which both of them produce the same potential is -

$${{\sqrt 2 R} \over {\sqrt 2 + 1}}$$
$${R \over {\sqrt 2 + 1}}$$
$${{\sqrt 2 R} \over {\sqrt 2 - 1}}$$
$${R \over {\sqrt 2 - 1}}$$

Explanation

V $$ = {{4qa} \over {\left( {R + x} \right)}} = {{2qa} \over {\left( {{x^2}} \right)}}$$

$$\sqrt 2 x = R + x$$

$$x = {R \over {\sqrt 2 - 1}}$$
