Two electric dipoles, A, B with respective dipole moments $\displaystyle \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{A}}}=-4$ qa $\displaystyle \hat{i}$ and
$$\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{B}}}=-2 \text { qa } \hat{i} \text { are placed on the } x \text {-axis with }
$$
a separation R, as shown in the figure
The distance from $\displaystyle A$ at which both of them produce the same potential is :
Official answer
(1)
$\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{2} R}{\sqrt{2}-1}$
(2)
$\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{2} R}{\sqrt{2}+1}$
NTA’s answer key accepts either.
