  • A
    ${E_e} = 2{E_a}$
  • B
    ${E_a} = 2{E_e}$

Which of the following options is a pair of polar molecules?

Three point charges $q, -2q$ and $q$ are placed along the $x$-axis at $x = -a, 0$ and $a$ respectively. As $a \rightarrow 0$ and $q \rightarrow \infty$ while $qa^2 = Q$ remains finite, the electric field at a point $P$, at a distance $x$ $(x \gg a)$ from $x = 0$ is $E = \frac{\alpha Q}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 x^\beta} \hat{i}$.
