dielectric constant and dielectric loss were measured within the frequency range from 10 Hz to 106 Hz and the temperature ranging from 50°C to 300°C. The results showed that the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the sample are frequency dependent and temperature dependent. Dielectric constant and dielectric loss increases with decreasing frequency and increasing temperature due to interfacial polarization. Introduction: Dielectric materials with high dielectric constant‚ good thermal

While he was in prison‚ news broke that South Africa had been banned from the 1964 Tokyo Olympics as he had campaigned for

______________________ Evaluation of the Gas Law Constant Objectives In this experiment‚ we will determine the Ideal Gas Constant‚ R‚ which relates the number of moles of gas present to its volume‚ pressure and absolute temperature. Background To see how "R" was derived‚ we must look at the proportionalities defined by the other fundamental gas laws. For example‚ Charles’ Law showed us that the volume of a gas sample is proportional to its absolute temperature at constant pressure. Thus V ∝ T abs . In addition
