(1.) An electric dipole consists of a positive and negative charge of 1 nanoColoumb separated by 3 millimeters. An electric field of E = 125 N/C (represented by the arrow below) points to the right. I only draw one arrow, but the same electric field exists everywhere on the page. a. Draw the dipole vector "p", which points from the negative charge to the positive charge. Find the net torque on the dipole about the point in-between the two charges. Which way will it rotate? Find the torque on the system when each charge has rotated clockwise by 90 degrees. e. Draw the dipole vector for part (d.). b. C. d. 3 mm +
