Correct Answer

Explanation

The susceptibility (χe) of a material is defined as χe = εr - 1, where εr represents the dielectric constant. For a material with a dielectric constant of 2.26, the susceptibility is 2.26 - 1 = 1.26. Susceptibility quantifies the degree of polarization of a material in response to an electric field and provides insight into its electrical behavior.
