Question

Suppose you put positive charge on a solid, insulated metal box (actually, remove electrons from the box). Since it is a conductor, the charges will rearrange. On the outside surface, the greatest accumulation of charges will be nowhere, since no charges reside on the outer surface at the corners at the center of each edge at the center of each side nowhere, sine the charges will be uniformly distributed In the inside of the box, the greatest accumulation of charges will be nowhere, since the charges will be uniformly distributed at the center of each edge nowhere, since no charges reside on the outer surface at the corners at the center of each side

Explanation / Answer

a) at the corners (since The local charge density varies inversely as the square of the radius of curvature. )

b) no where, since charges reside on outer surface for a conductor
