field varies as r^3.

potential varies as 1/r²

potential is zero at all points on the right bisector.

field is perpendicular to the axis of dipole.

Answer: potential is zero at all points on the right bisector.

9. Which of the following is not showing the essential difference between electrostatic shielding by a conducting shell and magneto static shielding ?

Magnetic field lines can end but conductors cannot end them.

Electrostatic field lines can end on charges and conductors have free charges.

Shells of high permeability materials can be used to divert lines of magnetic field from the interior region.

Lines of magnetic field cannot end on any material and perfect shielding is not possible.

Answer: Magnetic field lines can end but conductors cannot end them.
