When an electric field E is applied to solid and liquid insulating materials, the internal field Ei acting at the location of atom is such that

Ei = E
Ei > E
Ei < E
Ei may be equal to or less than E

Correct Answer: Ei > E

Explanation:

The actual field seen by an atom is larger than applied field.
