Two electric dipoles $A, B$ with respective dipole moments $\overrightarrow {{d_A}}  =  - 4\,qa\,\hat i$ and $\overrightarrow {{d_B}}  =  2\,qa\,\hat i$ are placed on the $x-$ axis with a separation $R$, as shown in the figure. The distance from $A$ at which both of them produce the same potential is

$v_{1}=v_{2}$

$\frac{\mathrm{k}(2 \mathrm{qa})}{\mathrm{x}^{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{k}(4 \mathrm{qa})}{(\mathrm{R}-\mathrm{x})^{2}}$

$R-x=\sqrt{2} x$

$x=\frac{R}{\sqrt{2}+1}$
