Term

Using basic relationship between field and potential with conductors at electrostatic equilibrium

Definition

Any excess is located on the surface and electric field is zero at any of the interior point of a conductor in ee

Term

Field is other than 0 in conductor

Definition

Force on charge carriers would move, creating current but there can't be current in interior points so it must field must be 0 at all interior points

Term

Finding potential inside conductor

Definition

By connecting two points with a line and integrating Es, potential difference, deltaV= V2- V1 can be found along line as the electric field is 0 in the interior points so efield is 0 and the value of the integral is o=> so potential difference is zero so the two points are at the same potential in the electrostatic equilibrium conductor
