Question

Electric field inside a conductor is always zero. Is this statement true of false?

Answer 1

Answer:

true

Explanation:

charge is not present inside the conductor

charge is present on the surface of the conductor

so by applying Gauss law you can say that electric field will be zero

Answer 2

It is true that,electric field inside a conductor is always zero.

• The electricity conducting free electrons are the reason behind the formation of electric field in a conductor.

• Now,these free electrons are only present on the external surface of the conductor.

• That's why the electric field is only present in the external surface of the conductor and the electric field inside the conductor is always zero.
