hello,
I was wondering if there is a way in which it would be possible to calculate the distance at which an electric field would need to be to polarize a neutral object or mass m, to a point where the object being like a rod, aligns with the field. I guess this is dependent on the mass, however i am not sure how to calculate the minimum distance at which a change would be able to be seen and measured experimentally. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
