Electric field decreases when going far from the point charge. This is true for an electric dipole. Does the electric field decreases at the same rate in both the cases?

Answer»

For electric dipole at axial and equatorial positions, for far points (r >> 2l) electric field E ∝ \(\frac{1}{r^3}\) and for single charge, electric field E ∝ \(\frac{1}{r^2}\) case of electric dipole electric field decreases comparatively for single charge.
