How to Calculate and Solve for Total Polarization | Electrical Properties

by

The image of total polarization is shown above.

To compute for total polarization, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Electronic Polarization (Pe), Ionic Polarization (Pi) and Orientation Polarization (Po).

The formula for calculating total polarization:

P = Pe + Pi + Po

Where:

P = Total Polarization
Pe = Electronic Polarization
Pi = Ionic Polarization
Po = Orientation Polarization

Let’s solve an example;
Find the total polarization when the electronic polarization is 24, the ionic polarization is 4 and the orientation polarization is 2.

This implies that;

Pe = Electronic Polarization = 24
Pi = Ionic Polarization = 4
Po = Orientation Polarization = 2

P = Pe + Pi + Po
P = 24 + 4 + 2
P = 30

Therefore, the total polarization is 30 C/m².

Calculating the Electronic Polarization when the Total Polarization, the Ionic Polarization and the Orientation Polarization is Given.

Pe = P – Pi – Po

Where:

Pe = Electronic Polarization
P = Total Polarization
Pi = Ionic Polarization
Po = Orientation Polarization

Given an example;
Find the electronic polarization when the total polarization is 29, the ionic polarization is 10 and the orientation polarization is 3.

This implies that;

P = Total Polarization = 29
Pi = Ionic Polarization = 10
Po = Orientation Polarization = 3

Pe = P – Pi – Po
Pe = 29 – 10 – 3
Pe = 19 – 3
Pe = 16

Therefore, the electronic polarization is 16.

by

The image of polarization of dielectric medium is shown below.

To compute for polarization of dielectric medium, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Permittivity of Vacuum (εo), Dielectric Constant (εr) and Electric Field Intensity (E).

The formula for calculating polarization of dielectric medium:

P = εo(εr – 1)E

Where:

P = Polarization of a Dielectric Medium
εo = Permittivity of Vacuum
εr = Dielectric Constant
E = Electric Field Intensity

Let’s solve an example;
Find the polarization of dielectric medium when the permittivity of vacuum is 12, the dielectric constant is 6 and the electric field intensity is 4.

This implies that;

εo = Permittivity of Vacuum = 12
εr = Dielectric Constant = 6
E = Electric Field Intensity = 4

P = εo(εr – 1)E
P = (12)(6 – 1)(4)
P = (12)(5)(4)
P = 240

Therefore, the polarization of dielectric medium is 240 C/m².

How to Calculate and Solve for Dielectric Displacement in Relation to Polarization | Electrical Properties

by

The image of dielectric displacement in relation to polarization is illustrated below.

To compute for dielectric displacement in relation to polarization, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Permittivity of Vacuum (εo), Electric Field Intensity (E) and Polarization (P).

The formula for calculating dielectric displacement in relation to polarization:

D = εoE + P

Where:

D = Dielectric Displacement in Relation to Polarization
εo = Permittivity of Vacuum
E = Electric Field Intensity
P = Polarization

Let’s solve an example;
Find the dielectric displacement in relation to polarization when the permittivity of vacuum is 8, the electric field intensity is 6 and the polarization is 2.

This implies that;

εo = Permittivity of Vacuum = 8
E = Electric Field Intensity = 6
P = Polarization = 2

D = εoE + P
D = (8)(6) + 2
D = (48) + 2
D = 50

Therefore, the dielectric displacement in relation to polarization is 50 C/m².

Calculating the Permittivity of Vacuum when the Dielectric Displacement in Relation to Polarization, the Electric Field Intensity and the Polarization is Given.

εo = D – P / E

Where:

εo = Permittivity of Vacuum
D = Dielectric Displacement in relation to polarization
E = Electric Field Intensity
P = Polarization

Let’s solve an example;
Find the permittivity of vacuum when the dielectric displacement in relation to polarization is 22, the electric field intensity is 6 and the polarization is 4.

This implies that;

D = Dielectric Displacement in relation to polarization = 22
E = Electric Field Intensity = 6
P = Polarization = 4

εo = D – P / E
εo = 22 – 4 / 6
εo = 18 / 6
εo = 3

Therefore, the permittivity of vacuum is 3.
