An electric dipole is situated in an electric field of uniform intensity $E$ whose dipole moment is $p$ and moment of inertia is $I$. If the dipole is displaced slightly from the equilibrium position,then the angular frequency of its oscillations is

  • A
    $(\frac{pE}{I})^{1/2}$
  • B
    $(\frac{pE}{I})^{3/2}$
  • C
    $(\frac{I}{pE})^{1/2}$
  • D
    $(\frac{p}{IE})^{1/2}$

An electric dipole of moment $\vec{P}$ is placed in a uniform electric field $\vec{E}$ such that $\vec{P}$ points along $\vec{E}$. If the dipole is slightly rotated about an axis perpendicular to the plane containing $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{P}$ and passing through the centre of the dipole, the dipole executes simple harmonic motion. Consider $I$ to be the moment of inertia of the dipole about the axis of rotation. What is the time period of such oscillation?
