There exists a non-uniform electric field along x-axis as shown in figure. The field increases at a uniform rate along positive x-axis. A dipole is placed inside the field as shown. For the dipole which one of the following statement is correct


- Dipole moves along positive x-axis and undergoes a clockwise rotation
- Dipole moves along negative x-axis after undergoing a clockwise rotation
- Dipole moves along positive x-axis after under going an anticlockwise rotation
- Dipole moves along negative x-axis and undergoes an anticlockwise rotation
Answer
(D) Dipole moves along negative x-axis and undergoes an anticlockwise rotation
