Oscillation of dipole -

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{PE}}

- wherein

I - Moment of Inertia of dipole.

 

 

\omega^{2}=\frac{PE}{I}=\frac{qd(E)}{\frac{md^{2}}{4}+\frac{md^{2}}{4}}= \frac{2qdE}{md^{2}}

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{2qE}{md}}


Option 1)

\sqrt{\frac{qE}{md}}

 

Option 2)

\sqrt{\frac{2qE}{md}}

Option 3)

2\sqrt{\frac{qE}{md}}

Option 4)

\sqrt{\frac{qE}{2md}}
