    This experiment aims to determine the dielectric constant of a dielectric substance using a variable capacitor, test capacitor, and radio frequency oscillator. The dielectric constant is calculated using the capacitance measurements of the variable capacitor without and with the dielectric substance. The procedure involves connecting the equipment, measuring the capacitance at different frequencies without and with the dielectric, and calculating the dielectric constant using the given formula. Precautions are noted to ensure proper resonance and handling of the dielectric disc during testing.
