The electrostatic force between the metal plates of an isolated parallel plate capacitor \(C\) having a charge \(Q\) and area \(A\) is:
1. | independent of the distance between the plates. |

An electric dipole with dipole moment \(\vec{p} = \left(3 \hat{i} + 4 \hat{j}\right) \times 10^{- 30}~\text{C-m}\) is placed in an electric field \(\vec{E} = 4000 \hat{i} ~\text{N/C}\). An external agent turns the dipole slowly until its electric dipole moment becomes \(\left(- 4 \hat{i} + 3 \hat{j}\right) \times 10^{- 30}~\text{C-m}\).
