- $\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}} \frac{4p_{1}p_{2}}{x^{4}}$
- $\frac{1}{3\pi\varepsilon_{0}} \frac{8p_{1}p_{2}}{x^{3}}$
- $\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}} \frac{6p_{1}p_{2}}{x^{4}}$
- $\frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}} \frac{8p_{1}p_{2}}{x^{4}}$

The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Force of interaction
$F = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}. \frac{3p_{1}p_{2}}{r^{4}}$
$F = \frac{1}{4\pi\varepsilon_{0}}. \frac{3p_{1}p_{2}}{r^{4}}$
