Question

Is my definition of a dipole and its dipole moment correct?

Answer 1

Heya....

Dipole define is that....

It is a measurement of the separation of two opposite electrical charges ...

Dipole moments...

They are vector Quantity....The magnitude is equal to the charge multiplied by the distance between the charges and the direction is from -ve charges to +ve charges...

Answer 2

Hello ☺



Dipole = , Di = 2 and poles = that north and South poles.


Now if we study is clearly , Dipole moment =-

=> dipole is a separation of positive and negative charges. The simplest example of this is a pair of electric charges of equal magnitude but opposite sign

=> dipole moment is defined as a system of two charges that are very close to each other
