A dipole of moment 0.50 e · nm is placed in a uniform electricfield with a magnitude of 1.3 105 N/C. What is the magnitude of thetorque on the dipole for each of the following situations?
(a) the dipole is aligned with the electric field
______ N · m

(b) the dipole is transverse to (perpendicular to) the electricfield
______ N · m

(c) the dipole makes an angle of 30.5° with the direction of theelectric field
_____ N · m

(d) Defining the potential energy to be zero when the dipole istransverse to the electric field, find the potential energy of thedipole in the electric field for the orientations specified inParts (a) and (c).
? = 0°, U = _____ J

? = 30.5°, U = _____ J
