Torque τ acting on a dipole is given by,  τ= p×E  .....................(1)
 
where p is dipole moment and E is electric Field intensity.
 
Workdone dw for small angular displacement  dθ is given by,  dw = τ dθ
 
If a dipole is initially at the field direction, then workdone W to turn the dipole
to the opposite direction  is given by
 
begin mathsize 14px style W space equals space integral subscript 0 superscript pi left parenthesis space p cross times E space right parenthesis space d theta space equals space p E integral subscript 0 superscript pi sin theta space d theta space equals space 2 p E end style
