Problem

A short electric dipole with dipole moment pp is placed at the origin oriented along the positive xx -axis. Consider a point PP at a distance rr from the origin such that the position vector of PP makes an angle of 60∘60^{\circ} with the xx -axis. If the electric field vector at point PP makes an angle α\alpha with the position vector OP→\overrightarrow{OP}, determine the value of tan⁡(α)\tan(\alpha).
