Question:

Match List I with List II

 LIST I
 (Quantity)

 List – II
 (Variation with distance 'r') 

 (A)

 Electric field intensity (E) due to a single charge 

 (I)

 $\alpha \frac{1}{r}$

 (B)

 Electric field intensity due to electric dipole

 (II)

 $\alpha \frac{1}{r^4}$  

 (C)

 Electric potential (V) due to a single charge

 (III)

  $\alpha \frac{1}{r^3}$ 

 (D) 

 Electric field intensity due to a quadrupole

 (IV)

  $\alpha \frac{1}{r^2}$ 

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I

A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV

A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II

Correct Answer:

A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II

Explanation:

Electric field intensity (E) due to a single charge $ E \propto \frac{1}{r^2}$

Electric field intensity due to electric dipole is $ E \propto \frac{1}{r^3}$

Electric potential (V) due to a single charge $ V \propto \frac{1}{r}$

Electric field intensity due to a quadrupole $ E \propto \frac{1}{r^4}$
