What is diele...

Question

What is dielectric medium

Open in App

Solution

Dielectric, insulating material or a very poor conductor of electric current. When dielectrics are placed in an electric field, practically no current flows in them because, unlike metals, they have no loosely bound, or free, electrons that may drift through the material. Instead, electric polarization occurs.
such a medium is called dielevdiel medium.
