HARD
IMPORTANT
In a certain region of space, electric field is along the -direction throughout. The magnitude of the electric field is, however, not constant but increases uniformly along the positive -direction, at the rate of per meter. What are the force and torque experienced by a system having a total dipole moment equal to in the negative -direction?
