Two identical electric point dipoles have dipole moments $\overrightarrow{p}_{1}= p\hat i$ and $\overrightarrow{p}_{2}=- p\hat i$ and are held on the $x-$axis at distance $'a'$ from each other. When released, they move along the $x-$axis with the direction of their dipole moments remaining unchanged. If the mass of each dipole is $'m',$ their speed when they arc infinitely far apart is
