Question

Which of the following statements are true for an isolated metallic conductor? (By isolated we mean it is not touching anything else.)

True False  It cannot carry a net charge.
True False  Electric field lines are always perpendicular to the surface.
True False  If it carries a net charge, the charge is distributed throughout its volume.
True False  Electric field lines are parallel to the surface.
True False  If it carries a net charge, the charge is distributed on its surface.
True False  It must be at zero absolute potential.

Explanation / Answer

1) false

2) true

3) false.............. because in side the conductor field is zero. so charge is distributed on its surface only

4) false[......... field lines are are perpendicular )

5) true

6) false
