Explain behaviour of dielectric material in electric field and capacito
Answers
A common example of a dielectric is the electrically insulating material between the metallic plates of a capacitor. The polarization of the dielectric by the applied electric field increases the capacitor's surface charge for the given electric field strength.
Capacitance due to a medium increases because of polarization property of dielectric. Whenever a dielectric material is placed between the parallel plates , the dielectric gets polarized, which decreases the electric field of the capacitor. ... This ratio CM/C0 is called as dielectric constant for that given material.
Answer:
Explanation:
when a dielectric slab with non polar molecules is placed in an electric field, the centre of a positive charge is pulled towards the negative plate of condencer and vice versa . the effect of applied field is to separate the positive charge . this effect is known as polarization of dielectric.
