Question

SUPPOSE AN UNCHARGED CONDUCTOR OF VOLUME V IS PLACED IN AN UNIFORM ELECTRIC FIELD .WHAT ABOUT THE ELECTRIC FIELD INSIDE THE CONDUCTOR.EXPLAIN? SUPPOSE THE CONDUCTOR IS NOW CHARGED THEN WHAT WOULD HAPPEN.Is electric field inside the conductor now exist?explain

Answer 1

Electric field inside a conductor is always zero.So initially nothing will happen but when you start to charge,the charges accumulate on the surface of the conductor and this conductor will now have an electric field of its own which would be exerted on points on its surfaces to points outside the surface;inside electric field will still be zero.
