Question 36
Two short electric dipoles A and B having dipole moment p₁ and p₂ respectively are placed with their axis mutually perpendicular as shown in the figure (A on the horizontal axis, B on the vertical axis, both centred at O; x lies on the horizontal axis beyond A). The resultant electric field at a point x is making an angle of 60° with the line joining points O and x. The ratio of the dipole moments p₂/p₁ is ____.
- A. sqrt(3)/2
- B. 2sqrt(3)Correct answer
- C. 1/sqrt(3)
- D. sqrt(3)
