Answer:


\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}

before looking at what the question says ,

let's have some general information related to the topic of the question !

__________________________


\implies \: Electric field refers to the force generated by a nearby charge in the surroundings.

__________________________


\implies \: Mathematically ,

Electric field =
(Kq)/(r^(2)) \\

where ,

K = coulomb's constant

q = magnitude of charge

r = distance between the opposite terminals

___________________________


\implies \: Dipole moment , P = 2qd

where ,

q = magnitude of charges

d = distance between the charges

___________________________


\implies \: positive charge tends to throw the field away from it while negative charge tends to pull the field towards it !

_____________________________________

seems like enough of information , so now let's look at the derivation !

refer the attachments in order to see the derivation !

Final answer -


\bold\pink{E = \frac{2kp}{(x {}^(2) - d {}^(2) ) {}^(2) } } \\

while , for a short dipole


\bold\pink{E = \frac{2pk}{x {}^(3) }} \\

hope helpful :D
