A molecule of a substance has a permanent electric dipole moment of magnitude $10^{-29} C m$. A mole of this substance is polarised (at low temperature) by applying a strong electrostatic field of magnitude $10^6 V m ^{-1}$. The direction of the field is suddenly changed by an angle of $60^{\circ}$. Estimate the heat released by the substance in aligning its dipoles along the new direction of the field. For simplicity, assume $100 \%$ polarisation of the sample.
