Conduction electrons are almost uniformly distributed within a conducting plate. When placed in an electrostatic field $\overrightarrow E $, the electric field within the plate
Is zero
Depends upon $E$
Depends upon $\overrightarrow E $
Depends upon the atomic number of the conducting element
Two thin conducting shells of radii $R$ and $3R$ are shown in the figure. The outer shell carries a charge $+ Q$ and the inner shell is neutral. The inner shell is earthed with the help of a switch $S$.
An empty thick conducting shell of inner radius $a$ and outer radius $b$ is shown in figure.If it is observed that the inner face of the shell carries a uniform charge density $-\sigma$ and the surface carries a uniform charge density $ '\sigma '$
If the outer surface of the shell is earthed, then identify the correct statement(s)
‘At the surface of a charged conductor electrostatic field must be normal to the surface at every point’. Explain.
A non uniformly shaped conductor is charged then at it's sharpest point
A metallic spherical shell has an inner radius $R_1$ and outer radius $R_2$. A charge $Q$ is placed at the centre of the spherical cavity. What will be surface charge density on the inner surface
