Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: The potential () at any axial point, at 2 m distance () from the centre of the dipole of dipole moment vector of magnitude, C m, is V.
Reason R: where is the distance of any axial point, situated at 2 m from the centre of the dipole.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below. [2024]
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true and R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false but R is true.

Potential at any axial point of a dipole is
So, assertion is true but reason is false.
A short electric dipole has a dipole moment of The electric potential due to the dipole at a point at a distance of 0.6 m from the centre of the dipole, situated on a line making an angle of with the dipole axis is [2020]
