Question

Some charge is being given to a conductor. Then it's potential:

Answer 1

Potential: The total amount of work required to move a positive charge from infinity to that point is defined as potential at that point.

Explanation:

1. When some charges are applied to a conductor, their entire charge is distributed only on its surface.
2. When the conductor is inside, its field is zero, and its potential is the same as it is on the outside.
3. As a result, the potential is the same across the conductor because the entire conductor is equipotential.

Hence, when a charge is applied to the conductor, the potential remains constant throughout.
