Dipoles in any electric field undergo alignment or orientation along the field lines of the electric field. This means that the positive end of the dipole aligns with the direction of the electric field, while the negative end points in the opposite direction, resulting in a torque that tends to rotate the dipole to align with the field. Additionally, if the electric field is non-uniform, dipoles experience a translational force along with alignment, which moves them from regions of weaker to stronger electric field intensity.
Answer: d
Explanation: Dipoles in any pure electric field will undergo polarisation. It is the process of alignment of dipole moments in accordance with the electric field applied.
