Electric potential and potential energy

Dimensional Formula of Electric Potential

Potential is an essential concept of mechanics. It can be defined for any force field like a gravitational field, electrostatic field, etc. In this note of the Dimension formula for Electric Potential, we will discuss Potential for the electrostatic field. Electric Potential is nothing but the work required to bring a charged particle from infinity […]

Dielectrics and Electric Polarization

A dielectric material is the non-metallic material having a high specific resistivity, a negative resistance temperature coefficient and with large resistance of insulation. Dielectric A dielectric is a substance that becomes polarized when exposed to an electric field. The charges present in the molecules move away from each other due to the action of the

Dielectrics and Electric Polarisation

Point charges, similar to electrons, are among the key construction squares of issue. Additionally, round charge movements (like charge on a metal circle) make external electric fields definitively like a point charge. The electric potential on account of a point charge is, henceforth, a case we need to consider. We can use math to notice

Dielectric Constant

Dielectric Constant is defined as a measure of the ability of a substance to resist the formation of an electric field. In simple terms, it is often used to describe the property or material’s ability to be an insulator or conductor. Every day, materials and substances are commonly used with different dielectric constants, depending on

Characteristic curves of a Zener diode and finding reverse breakdown voltage

Zener Diode A Zener diode is very similar to a PN junction diode. However, it is usually operated in reverse bias mode. This is a heavily doped PN junction diode that has been particularly created. As a result, the Zener diode is a highly doped semiconductor diode that is engineered to work in the opposite direction.
