Mention the direction of the electric dipole moment. Write the $SI$ unit of the electric dipole moment.
(N/A) The electric dipole moment $\vec{p}$ is a vector quantity defined as the product of the magnitude of one of the charges $(q)$ and the distance of separation $(2a)$ between them,directed from the negative charge to the positive charge.
Direction: The direction of the electric dipole moment is from the negative charge $(-q)$ to the positive charge $(+q)$.
$SI$ unit: The $SI$ unit of electric dipole moment is Coulomb-meter,denoted as $C \cdot m$.
Direction: The direction of the electric dipole moment is from the negative charge $(-q)$ to the positive charge $(+q)$.
$SI$ unit: The $SI$ unit of electric dipole moment is Coulomb-meter,denoted as $C \cdot m$.

View SolutionAn electric dipole consists of two particles, each of mass $1 \ kg$, separated by $1 \ m$, carrying charges $1 \ \mu C$ and $-1 \ \mu C$ respectively. It is in equilibrium in a uniform electric field of $2 \times 10^4 \ Vm^{-1}$. If it is deflected by a small angle $2^{\circ}$, the minimum time taken by it to come back again to the mean position is (in seconds): (in $\pi$)
