Dipole Moment Calculator

Find an electric dipole moment from charge and separation.

Dipole moment (C·m) 0

Formula: p = q · d

Step-by-step with your numbers:
1. Values used:
2. Charge = 0 C
3. Separation = 0.02
4.
5. Dipole moment = Charge x Separation = 0 x 0.02 = 0C·m
Did we solve your problem today?

An electric dipole is two equal, opposite charges; its moment measures the separation of charge.

The math behind it

p = q·d, pointing from the negative to the positive charge.

Worked example

1 µC separated by 2 cm → 2 × 10⁻⁸ C·m.
