An electric dipole of moment \(p\) is placed in an electric field of intensity \(E\). The dipole acquires a position such that the axis of the dipole makes an angle \(\theta\) with the direction of the field.

1. | \(p E \sin \theta,-p E \cos \theta\) | 2. | \(p E \sin \theta,-2 p E \cos \theta\) |
