  2. Relative permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permittivity

    A dielectric is an insulating material, and the dielectric constant of an insulator measures the ability of the insulator to store electric energy in an electrical field. Permittivity is a material's property that affects the Coulomb force between two point charges in the material. Relative permittivity is the factor by which the electric field ...

  3. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    The field does work against the bonds and the energy is absorbed by the material as heat. This is why microwave ovens work very well for materials containing water. There are two maxima of the imaginary component (the absorptive index) of water, one at the microwave frequency, and the other at far ultraviolet (UV) frequency. Both of these ...

  4. Field strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_strength

    For example, an electromagnetic field has both electric field strength and magnetic field strength. As an application, in radio frequency telecommunications, the signal strength excites a receiving antenna and thereby induces a voltage at a specific frequency and polarization in order to provide an input signal to a radio receiver.

  5. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    Thus the total magnetization will drop to zero when the applied field is removed. Even in the presence of the field, there is only a small induced magnetization because only a small fraction of the spins will be oriented by the field. This fraction is proportional to the field strength and this explains the linear dependency.

  6. Interface conditions for electromagnetic fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_conditions_for...

    Interface conditions describe the behaviour of electromagnetic fields; electric field, electric displacement field, and the magnetic field at the interface of two materials. The differential forms of these equations require that there is always an open neighbourhood around the point to which they are applied, otherwise the vector fields and H ...

  7. Field strength meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_strength_meter

    A field strength meter is actually a simple receiver. The RF signal is detected and fed to a microammeter, which is scaled in dBμ. The frequency range of the tuner is usually within the terrestrial broadcasting bands. Some FS meters can also receive satellite (TVRO and RRO) frequencies.

  8. Dielectric strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_strength

    The field strength at which break down occurs depends on the respective geometries of the dielectric (insulator) and the electrodes with which the electric field is applied, as well as the rate of increase of the applied electric field. Because dielectric materials usually contain minute defects, the practical dielectric strength will be a ...

  9. Electromagnetic tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_tensor

    In electromagnetism, the electromagnetic tensor or electromagnetic field tensor (sometimes called the field strength tensor, Faraday tensor or Maxwell bivector) is a mathematical object that describes the electromagnetic field in spacetime.
