An electric dipole is placed at an angle of ` 30^(@) ` to a non-uniform electric field. The dipole will experience.

Options

A. A translational force only in the direction of the field.
B. a translational force only in a direction normal to the direction of the field.
C. a torque as well as a translational force.
