In electromagnetism, there are two kinds of dipoles: An electric dipole deals with the separation of the positive and negative charges found in any electromagnetic system. A simple example of this system is a pair of electric charges of equal magnitude but opposite sign separated by some typically small distance.

Why is it called a dipole moment?
If an object is balanced, the theory of moments is that the sum of the clockwise moments around a pivot is equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moments around the same pivot. To explain this, I assumed it was called a dipole moment, since it defines the molecule's range of motion.
