A dipole comprises of two charged particles of identical magnitude 
and opposite in nature. The mass ' 
' of the positive charged particle is half of the mass of the negative charged particle. The two charges are separated by a distance ' 
'. If the dipole is placed in a uniform electric field ' 
'; such a way that dipole axis makes a very small angle with the electric field, ' 
'. The angular frequency of the oscillations of the dipole when released is given by:
