Two point charges of \( 1 \mu \mathrm{C} \) and \( -1 \mu \mathrm{C} \) are separated by a distance of \( 100 Å \). A point \( P \) is at a distance of \( 10 \mathrm{~cm} \) from the mid-point and on the perpendicular bisector of the line joining the two charges. The electric field at \( P \) will be

The correct answer is: \( 0.09 \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{C}^{-1} \)

The point lies on the equatorial line of a short dipole.
