The electric field $E$ is measured at a point $P (0,0, d )$ generated due to various charge distributions and the dependence of $E$ on $d$ is found to be different for different charge distributions. List-$I$ contains different relations between $E$ and $d$. List-$II$ describes different electric charge distributions, along with their locations.
