An Intiative by Sri Chaitanya
a
Dipole soon acquires its stable equilibrium position
b
Dipole undergoes SHM if θ is small, releasing oscillation energy into heat and acquires stable equilibrium position
c
Time period of oscillation does not depends on mass of dipole
d
Frequency of dipole is inversely proportional to square root of moment of inertia
answer is X.

Detailed Solution
There is a torque on dipole which gives an angular acceleration to dipole(α).Dipole oscillates and energy is released in the form of heat to achieve stable equilibrium position.ω=pEI 2πf=pEI
