Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFElectric field intensity (E):
The space around an electric charge in which its influence can be felt is known as the electric field.
The electric field intensity at a point is the force experienced by a unit of positive charge placed at that point.
Electric flux density (D):
Electric flux density is a measure of the strength of an electric field generated by a free electric charge, corresponding to the number of electric lines of force passing through a given area.
Electric flux density is the amount of flux passing through a defined area that is perpendicular to the direction of the flux.
Relationship between D and E:
D = ϵE
D = ϵoϵr E
\(E=\frac{D}{\epsilon_0 \epsilon_r}\)
