Question

The dielectric constant for a material with electric susceptibility of 4 is equal to...

Answer 1

Hey dear,

◆ Dielectric constant-
- The dielectric constant is the relative permittivity of a dielectric material.
- It has no units.
- Dielectric constant for vacuum is 1.

● Answer-
εr = 5

● Explanation-
# Given-
χ = 4

# Solution-
Electric susceptibility is given by-
χ = εr - 1
4 = εr - 1
εr = 4 + 1
εr = 5

Therefore, the value of dielectric constant is 5.

Hope this helps you...
