AI Generated Solution

To find the dipole moment (\( p \)) of the dipole, we can use the relationship between the torque (\( \tau \)), the electric field (\( E \)), and the angle (\( \theta \)): \[ \tau = pE \sin \theta \] Given: - Torque, \( \tau = 9 \times 10^{-26} \, \text{N m} \) - Electric field, \( E = 10^4 \, \text{N/C} \) - Angle, \( \theta = 30^\circ \) ...
