The dipole moment of a water molecule is 6.3×1030Cm. A sample of water contains 1021 molecules, whose dipole moments are all oriented in an electric field of strength 2.5×105N/C. Calculate the work to be done to rotate the dipoles from their initial orientation θ1=0 to one in which all the dipoles are perpendicular to the field, θ2=90
