You would then have an insulator immersed in an electric field.
Nothing would happen.

What happens to a positivly charged object is placed within a positive electric field?
It will be pushed away from the source of the electric field.
What happens when a charged particle is placed in the electric field of another particle with the same charge?
they either attract or repel
What is dielectric matter?
An electrical insulator that can be polarized by an external electric field.
If a large enough electric field is applied how does an electric conductor become an insulator?
If a very large electric field is applied on a conductor then a phenomenon of a dielectric breakdown takes place and it looses all its charge carriers to the nearest conductor. Hence becoming an insulator.
What happens when a charged particle is placed in an electric field of another particle with the same charge?
There is a force repelling the two charges apart.

What happens when an electric field is placed inside a magnetic field?
Electricity is formed (electrons move )

What is dielectric matter?
An electrical insulator that can be polarized by an external electric field.
What will happen to the electric field when a dielectric is placed?
The electric field is weakened when a dielectric is inserted.

Why does the electric field inside a dielectric decrease when it is placed in an external electric field?
The net electric field inside a dielectric decreases due to polarization. The external electric field polarizes the dielectric and an electric field is produced due to this polarization. This internal electric field will be opposite to the external electric field and therefore the net electric field inside the dielectric will be less.
An electric dipole is placed in a nonuniform electric filedIs there a net force on the dipole?
yes, there is a NET field .electric dipole experiences a net field .(not in uniform E.Field)
A negatively charged object is placed within a positive electric field. what happens to the object?
Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)
What happens to the strength of the electric field each particle exerts on the other?
The strength of the electric field approaches zero
