Computing dipole moment from charge density
For this question, I get that $$\mathbf{p} = \int \mathbf{r}\,\rho(\mathbf{r})\,d^3r$$ but for the bounds, does r go from 0 to ##r_0## or from 0 to ##\infty##? I would think infinity, but then how do I use the "hint"? I also don't get the significance of shifting the electron charge density...- laser1
