Physics · JEE | Electrostatic Potential and Capacitance
हिन्दीConsider the following statements regarding dielectrics and polarization: (A) Non-polar molecules have zero permanent dipole moment in the absence of an external electric field. (B) Polar molecules have a permanent dipole moment even without an external electric field. (C) The polarization \( P \) is defined as the dipole moment per unit volume. (D) The dielectric constant \( K \) of a substance is always less than 1. Which of the above statements are correct?
View Answer & Solution
Correct answer · Option A
(A), (B) and (C) only
Explanation
Statements (A), (B), and (C) are correct textbook facts. Statement (D) is incorrect because \( K > 1 \) always.
