TBR Physics page 129
Torque = qELsin(theta)
Is q the product of the charges (this is how it is defined on the previous page)?
Also, why is a dipole "most stable" when, in a field from left to right (that means field arrows are going RIGHT), the positive end of the dipole is oriented on the left side (see figure 8-11a)?
