Q. What is the cumulative electric charge of an electric dipole?
Answer: Zero
Notes: An electric dipole is a pair of equal and opposite point charges. In the natural world, most dipoles align themselves with the Earth's magnetic field. Since the charges of an electric dipole are equal and opposite, they cancel out each other, resulting in a net charge of zero, regardless of the individual charge magnitudes.
