The electrostatic potential on the surface of a charged conducting sphere is 200V. Two statements are made in this regard: Statement 1 : At any point inside the sphere, electric field intensity is zero. Statement 2 : At any point inside the sphere, the electrostatic potential is 200V. Which of the following is a correct statement? |
S1 is true but S2 is false. Both S1 & S2 are false. S1 is true, S2 is also true and S1 is the cause of S2. S1 is true, S2 is also true but the statements are independent. |
S1 is true, S2 is also true and S1 is the cause of S2. |
Electric field is zero inside the conductor and hence electric Potential is a constant inside the conductor because E = -dV/dr = 0, hence V is constant. |
