प्रश्न
Define electric dipole moment. Write its S.I. unit.
उत्तर
An electric dipole consists of two equal and opposite charges (+q and −q) separated by a fixed distance d.
The electric dipole moment is a vector quantity defined as the product of the magnitude of one of the charges and the separation distance between them.
SI unit of electric dipole moment is coulomb meter (Cm).
