An electric dipole is placed in a uniform electric field` vec E` of the magnitude `40 NC^(-1)`. Graph shows of the magnitude of the torque on the dipole versus the angle `theta` between the field `vecE` and the dipole moment `vec p`. The magnitude of dipole moment `vec P` is equal to

A

`1.25xx10^(-28) C-m`

B

`2.0xx10^(-25)C-m`

C

`2.5xx10%^(-28)C-m`
