Charge on a conducting metal sphere is present :
- A on the surface of the sphere
- B inside the sphere
- C outside the sphere
- D both inside and outside the sphere
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) on the surface of the sphere
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In a conductor, like charges repel each other and move as far apart as possible to reach electrostatic equilibrium. Because the material is conducting, these charges can move freely until they all reside on the outer surface, leaving the net charge inside the sphere at zero. A)…
