Two electric dipoles of dipole moments $1.2 \times 10^{-30} \, C \cdot m$ and $2.4 \times 10^{-30} \, C \cdot m$ are placed in two different uniform electric fields of strengths $5 \times 10^{4} \, N \cdot C^{-1}$ and $15 \times 10^{4} \, N \cdot C^{-1}$ respectively. The ratio of maximum torque experienced by the electric dipoles will be $\frac{1}{x}$. The value of $x$ is $.....$

An electric dipole is kept in a non-uniform electric field. It experiences

One end of a spring of negligible unstretched length and spring constant $k$ is fixed at the origin $(0,0)$. $A$ point particle of mass $m$ carrying a positive charge $q$ is attached at its other end. The entire system is kept on a smooth horizontal surface. When a point dipole $\overrightarrow{p}$ pointing towards the charge $q$ is fixed at the origin,the spring gets stretched to a length $\ell$ and attains a new equilibrium position. If the point mass is now displaced slightly by $\Delta \ell \ll \ell$ from its equilibrium position and released,it is found to oscillate at frequency $\frac{1}{\delta} \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}$. The value of $\delta$ is. . . . . .
