Having Trouble With Dipole Torque and Work
I used the equation torque = dipole magnitude x E. the dipole came in units 2.5 nC . m, the field as 3.6 MN/C. I took the n to represent nano ^ -9 and M as Mega ^ 6. I did the appropriate conversions to have the product of the two come in units mN.m in which the program wants the answer...- ccelt09

Having Trouble With Dipole Torque and Work
There is a two part problem that I'm struggling with. 1) A dipole with a moment of 2.5 nC . m is oriented 33 degrees from a field with strength 3.6 MN/C. What is the magnitude of the torque on the dipole? ____ mN . m I know the equation T = qd x E sin (theta) where qd is the given dipole...- ccelt09
