An electric dipole has a fixed dipole moment \(\vec P\), which makes angle \(\theta\) with respect to \(x\)-axis .  When subjected to an electric field \(\vec E_1= E \hat i,\)  it experiences a torque \(\vec T_1 = \tau \hat k.\) When subjected to another electric field \(\vec E_2 = \sqrt{3}E_1 \hat j\)  it experiences a torque \(\vec T_2 = - \vec T_1.\)The angle \(\theta\) is:
1. \(30^{\circ}\)
2. \(45^{\circ}\)
3. \(60^{\circ}\)
4. \(90^{\circ}\)

A electric dipole is formed by two equal and opposite charges \(q\) with separation \(d\). The charges have same mass \(m\). It is kept in a uniform electric field \(E\). If it is slightly rotated from its equilibrium orientation, then its angular frequency \(\omega\) is:
1. \( \sqrt{\frac{q E}{2 m d}} \)
2. \( \sqrt{\frac{2 q E}{m d}} \)
3. \( 2 \sqrt{\frac{q E}{m d}} \)
4. \( \sqrt{\frac{q E}{m d}}\)

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R):
Assertion (A): Non-polar materials do not have any permanent dipole moment.
Reason (R): When a non-polar material is placed in an electric field, the centre of the positive charge distribution of its individual atom or molecule coincides with the centre of the negative charge distribution.
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.
