In a certain region of space, the electric field is along the \(z\text-\)direction throughout. The magnitude of the electric field is, however, not constant but increases uniformly along the positive \(z\text-\)direction, at the rate of \(10^{5}\) NC-1 per meter. What is the torque experienced by a system having a total dipole moment equal to \(10^{-7}~\text{C-m}\) in the negative \(z\text{-}\)direction? 
1. \(10^{-2}~\text{N-m}\) 2. \(0\)
3. \(10^{-1}~\text{N-m}\) 4. \(0.01~\text{N-m}\)
