Physics Electrostatics Level: Misc Level

When there is a net static charge present on a perfect conductor, and no other charges are present

A) the chargewill be uniformly distributed over the outside of the conductor 9i.e., the surface charge density will be constant)

B) every point throughout the entire conductor will be at zero potential.

C) every point throughout the entire conductor will be at a constant potential, but not necessarily at zero potential,

D) the electric field inside the conductor need not be zero if the conductor is hollow.

E) the surface charge density will be greatest where the conductor is flat and smallest where there are sharp protuberances or points.
