Problem

An electric dipole with moment p=4×10−9 C mp = 4 \times 10^{-9}\,\text{C}\,\text{m} is aligned parallel to a uniform electric field of magnitude E=5×104 N/CE = 5 \times 10^{4}\,\text{N/C}. Calculate the amount of work done by an external agent to rotate the dipole by 60∘60^{\circ} from its initial stable equilibrium position.
