A system has two charges `q_(A)=2.5 xx 10^(-7)C and q_(B)=-2.5 xx 10^(-6)C` located at paint A: 0, 0, -15 cm) and B: (0, 0, +15 cm), respectively. What are the total charge and electric dipole moment of the system?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total charge =Zero
`p=q(2l) =2.5 xx 10^(-7) xx 30 xx 10^(-2)=7.5 xx 10^(-8)" Cm along z axis"`.
