Electric field \(\vec{E}\) at the surface of charged conductor is:
A. \(|\vec{E}| = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}\)
B. \(\vec{E}\) has a tangential component
C. Electric field is zero everywhere inside the conductor.
D. Any excess charge must reside on the surface of the conductor.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A C only
- B C and E only
- C A, B and C only
- D A, C and D only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) A, C and D only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
At the surface of a charged conductor, the electric field is always normal to the surface \(\left(E=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_0}\right)\) with no tangential component. Inside the conductor, the electric field is zero, and all excess charge resides strictly on the outer surface in…
