An electric dipole of length $0.5 \text{ }\mu\text{m}$ is placed with its axis making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with a uniform electric field of $10^4 \text{ V/m}$. If it experiences a torque of $5 \times 10^{-9} \text{ Nm}$, the magnitude of the charge on the dipole is (given $\sin 30^{\circ} = 0.5$). (in $\text{ }\mu\text{C}$)
