Why is electric field perpendicular to surface of conductor..?

ANSWER ▶

Now, suppose electric field lines are notperpendicular to the local surface of theconductor . Then electric field will have some component parallel to the surface. ... So, for surface to be equipotentialsurface for static charge distribution thefield lines at the surface areperpendicular to the surface.

Answer 2

HI DEAR


Your answer is here

The free charge has been bought to the
conductor's surface, leaving electrostatic forces in equilibrium. A conductor placed in an electric field will be polarized...Free charges move within the conductor, polarizing it, until the electric fields line are perpendicular to the surface
