An electric dipole consists of two opposite charges of magnitude `q = 1xx10^(-6)C` separated by 2.0cm. The dipole is placed in an external field of `1xx10^(5) NC^(-1)`. What maximum torque does the field exert on the dipole ? How much work must an external agent do to turn the dipole end for end, starting from position of alignment `(theta = 0^(@))` ?

A

`0.2xx10^(-3)` N-m

B

`1.0xx10^(-3)` N-m

C

`2xx10^(-2)` N-m

D

`4xx10^(-3)` N-m
