Electric Charges And Fields

Question

Two charges one +5 μC and another –5 μC are kept 1 mm apart. Calculate the dipole moment.

Solution

Charge on dipole is $\pm 5 μC = \pm 5 \times 10^{- 6} C$
Distance between the charges = 1mm= $10^{- 3} m$

Dipole moment is given by-p = q(2a)
= $5 \times 10^{- 6} \times 2 \times 10^{- 3} = 10^{- 8} Cm$
