Question

Explain in short the effects produced inside a metallic conductor placed in an external electric field.

Answer 1

Here is the desired answer:  

The net electric charge of a conductor resides entirely on its surface.

(The mutual repulsion of like charges from Coulomb's Law demands that the charges be as far apart as possible, hence on the surface of the conductor.)

The electric field inside the conductor is zero.
