A rectangular surface of sides 10 cm and 15 cm is placed inside a uniform electric field of 25 Vm^(-1) , such that normal to the surface makes an angle of 60^(@) with the direction of electric field. The flux of electric field through the rectangular surface is

An electric dipole placed in an electric field experiences a torque. When a dipole is placed in a uniform electric field the torque acting on it is found to be 0.707 times the maximum torque. Calculate the angle between the Intensity of electric fied and electric dipole moment and draw the orientation of the dipole in the electric field.
