Question

Find the dielectric constant for a material with electric susceptibility of 7

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

SI units the electric susceptibility χ is defined by the equation P=ϵ0χE which relates the polarization per unit volume P to the electric field E and ϵ0 is the free space permittivity. The electric susceptibility χ is a dimensionless quantity related to the relative permittivity ϵ of a material by χ=ϵ−1.May

Answer 2

Given:

Electric susceptibility of a material is 7.

To find:

Dielectric constant for that material.

Calculation:

First of all , let's learn about Dielectric constant and susceptibility:

• Dielectric constant: It is also known as relative permittivity , and is represented as the permittivity of that material divided by the permittivity of free space (vacuum).

• Electric susceptibility: It represents the extent to which the material undergoes polarization and the charges get separated.

The general relationship between dielectric constant and electric susceptibility is as follows:

$\boxed{ \large{K = 1 + \chi}}$

Putting available values :

$= > \large{K = 1 + 7}$

$= > \large{K =8}$

So, final answer: Dielectric constant is 8.
