The electric field due to a short electric dipole at a distance $r$ on the axial line from its mid-point is $x$ times the electric field at a distance $2r$ on the equatorial line from the mid-point of the dipole. Then,the value of $x$ is

Two short electric dipoles $A$ and $B$ having dipole moments $p_1$ and $p_2$ respectively are placed with their axes mutually perpendicular as shown in the figure. The resultant electric field at a point $x$ makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the line joining points $O$ and $x$. The ratio of the dipole moments $p_2/p_1$ is . . . . . . .
