Physics Question from JEE Main 2025 · 23 January, Shift 1

A point particle of charge QQ is located at PP along the axis of an electric dipole 11 at a distance rr as shown in the figure. The point PP is also on the equatorial plane of a second electric dipole 22 at a distance rr. The dipoles are made of opposite charge qq separated by a distance 2a2a. For the charge particle at PP not to experience any net force, which of the following correctly describes the situation?

Two vertical dipoles are shown with point P above. Dipole 1 has +q on left and -q on right, P lies on its axis at distance r. Dipole 2 below has +q on left and -q on right, and P lies on its equatorial line at distance r. Separation of charges in each dipole is 2a.
  • A

    ar∼20\frac{a}{r} \sim 20

  • B

    ar∼10\frac{a}{r} \sim 10

  • C

    ar∼0.5\frac{a}{r} \sim 0.5

  • D

    ar∼3\frac{a}{r} \sim 3
