Please explain the relation behind this?

In summary, the conversation is discussing the relationship between electrical potential and electric fields, specifically how they change from a dipole to parallel dipoles. The equations in the pictures are used to demonstrate this relationship and provide information about the differences between potential and electric fields. The conversation also suggests using LaTeX to post mathematical equations.

Welcome to PF.

That's a pretty big ask. Didn't your instructor cover this in class? It's better if you post what you understand and what you don't understand. It's best to post math using LaTeX (see the "LaTeX Guide" link below the Edit window).

I don't even see the relation between this question and the screen shots. Does the word 'dipole' appear on pages 1 or 2 ?

What I do see on the screen shots is some lab instruction. Figure 2 on page 3 could well be one of the configurations mentioned under 'Data Analysis', so perhaps you can post your results for that configuration ? Equipotential contours seem to have been measured and field lines drawn.
