An electric dipole is formed by two equal and opposite charges $q$ with separation $d$. The charges have the same mass $m$. It is kept in a uniform electric field $E$. If it is slightly rotated from its equilibrium orientation,then its angular frequency $\omega$ is

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{qE}{2md}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{2qE}{md}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{qE}{md}}$
  • D
    $2\sqrt{\frac{qE}{md}}$
