Question

can anyone temme about the effect of charge ,electric field,and othr related aspects on a conductor?

Answer 1

Definition of a conductor is a material which contains a movable electrical charges. To get charges moving in a conductor one must apply a potential difference (voltage) across the material. Now when this happens the electrons will want to move as far away from each other as possible meaning the will move to the surface of the material. Gauss's law states that the electric field is the closed loop integral of all the charge within the material. Since all the charge is on the surface of the material and not inside of it, the electric field INSIDE the material is zero. Now lets say there is an external electrical field moving from right to left and a conductor is placed within this material, the electrons will move to the right of the material and there will be an absence of electrons on the left making it have a positive charge (holes). This opposition of the external electric field negates it making the field INSIDE the conductor once again zero.

Answer 2

ohh!ookieee!thnx alott!but is thr any possibility tat they don't cancel out?

Answer 3

Hmm good question. Ideally they would always oppose each other an cancel out. However, from a realistic stand point there are error in the system such as the conductivity of the conductor and the medium in which the external electric field is moving. There are others things to consider such as the strength of the electric field and whether or not the conductor has enough conductivity to attain such a strength to oppose.

ohh!thnxx alotttttttt!:)
