Question

what is the dielectric constant of a metal
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

electric field (E) is generated both inside the metal and outer (plates) which are equal in magnitude but opposite making the net resultant field (Er) in the metal to be zero. Hence, the derived dielectric constant (K) of the metal, is (E/Er = E/0) which is infinity. This is why the dielectric constant is infinite

Answer 2

Answer:

An electric field(E) is generated in both inside the metal and outer(plates) which are equal in magnitudes but opposite in making the net resultant field in the metal to be zero.

Hence the derived dielectric constant (k) of metal is(E/Er=0) which is infinity.
