Dielectrics Introduction
• Dielectrics are basically nonconductors of electricity because     
usually  do not have any free charge for conduction.
• They have positive and negative charge tightly bound together.
• Under the influence of external field positive and negative 
charges are displaced from their equilibrium and form dipole 
which are responsible for dielectric behavior of these materials 
it may solid, liquid or gases.
• There is a slight difference between dielectric and insulators. 
The main function of dielectrics is to store electrical energy, 
while the function of insulators is to obstruct the flow of 
current.

FAQs on PPT - Dielectric and Magnetic Properties of Materials - Civil Engineering (CE)

1. What are dielectric materials and what are their properties?
Ans. Dielectric materials are substances that do not conduct electricity easily and are used to separate conducting materials in electrical circuits. The properties of dielectric materials include their ability to store electrical energy when an electric field is applied, their permittivity (ability to polarize in response to an applied electric field), and their breakdown strength (maximum electric field that they can withstand before breaking down).
2. How do dielectric materials affect the capacitance of a capacitor?
Ans. Dielectric materials increase the capacitance of a capacitor. When a dielectric is inserted between the plates of a capacitor, it reduces the electric field between the plates and increases the capacitance. This is because the dielectric material polarizes in response to the applied electric field, creating additional charges on the surface of the dielectric, which in turn enhances the overall charge storage capacity of the capacitor.
3. What are some examples of magnetic materials and their properties?
Ans. Some examples of magnetic materials are iron, nickel, and cobalt. These materials possess magnetic properties due to the presence of unpaired electrons in their atomic or molecular structure. When subjected to an external magnetic field, these materials can be magnetized and exhibit properties like attraction or repulsion to other magnetic materials, the ability to retain a magnetic field even after the external field is removed (magnetism), and the ability to induce a current in a nearby conductor (magnetic induction).
4. How do magnetic materials affect the inductance of a coil?
Ans. Magnetic materials increase the inductance of a coil. When a magnetic material, such as iron, is inserted into a coil, it enhances the magnetic field produced by the coil and thereby increases the inductance. This is because the presence of the magnetic material increases the magnetic flux linkage, leading to a higher magnetic field and a larger inductance value.
5. What is the relationship between dielectric constant and permittivity?
Ans. The dielectric constant is equal to the relative permittivity of a material. It is a measure of how well a material can store electrical energy in an electric field compared to a vacuum. The dielectric constant is the ratio of the capacitance of a capacitor with a dielectric material to the capacitance of the same capacitor with a vacuum as the dielectric. In other words, it quantifies the degree of polarization and charge storage capability of a dielectric material when subjected to an applied electric field.
