It is so bcoz in case of conductor the value of dielectric constant is always taken as ''1'' i.e K = 1

but when a conductor is placed in an electric field there k is not equals to 1 and therefore when a dielectric is placed in external electric field then the polarised electric field is not equal to the external electric field but in case of conductor it is equal

 

 

plz approve
