Questions  

Statement 1: Insulators do not allow flow of current through them.

Statement 2: Insulators have no free charge carriers.

a
Both statements 1 and 2 are correct
b
Statement 1 is correct statement 2 is incorrect
c
Statement 1 is incorrect statement 2 is correct
d
Both statements 1 and 2 are incorrect

detailed solution
