| Assertion (A): | If the electric field due to a dipole on its axis line at a distance \(r\) is \(E\), then the electric field due to a dipole at the same distance at the equatorial line will be \(\frac{E}{2}\). |
| Reason (R): | Electric field due to dipole varies inversely as the square of the distance. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
| 4. | Both (A) and (R) are False. |
