Some charge is being given to a conductor. Then its potential is
- maximum at surface
- maximum at centre
- remains same throughout the conductor
- maximum somewhere between surface and centre.
Answer
(3) remains same throughout the conductor
Solution
As per NCERT, in electrostatics the electric field inside a conductor is zero.
E = - dVdr = 0 inside V = constant
The potential is the same throughout the volume of the conductor and equal to that on its surface.
Answer: (3)
