In a medium of dielectric constant $K$,the electric field is $\vec E$. If $\varepsilon_0$ is the permittivity of free space,the electric displacement vector is:

  • A
    $\frac{K\vec E}{\varepsilon_0}$
  • B
    $\frac{\vec E}{K\varepsilon_0}$
  • C
    $\frac{\varepsilon_0\vec E}{K}$
  • D
    $K\varepsilon_0\vec E$
