A small electric dipole , having a moment of inertia about its center, is kept at a distance from the center of a spherical shell of radius . The surface charge density is uniformly distributed on the spherical shell. The dipole is initially oriented at a small angle as shown in the figure. While staying at a distance , the dipole is free to rotate about its center.
