Relation between Electric Susceptibility and Dielectric Constant, Electr...


RELATION BETWEEN ELECTRIC SUSCEPTIBILITY AND DIELECTRIC CONSTANT

ELECTRIC SUSCEPTIBILITY: When a dielectric material is placed in an electric field. It becomes electrically polarized. For most material the polarization is proportional to electric field. Electrical Susceptibility is denoted by X_e which is dimensionless.

DIELECTRIC CONSTANT: When dielectric material is introduced between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor, the capacitance of the capacitor increases.
