PHYS102 | Conductors 1- Field Inside a Conductor

Here we see the consequence of having charge that is free to move in a conductor - it forces the electric field inside the conductor to be zero.

Nicely done. I explain it similarly, but you're slicker and clearer than me. Thanks for the teaching tips!

[@Prof-Hafner]

Sometimes I find you even have to bend the facts a bit to explain something clearly. :). Risky move though.

I’m so grateful for this video! I could not understand how it worked, until I saw this! It helped me so much and I’m so glad I found this! It’s so well explained, wow! Again, thank you so much!!!

[@sehajsukhleensingh1189]

Great explanation sir ❤️❤️

[@eduardoandrescontrerasrome6703]

Great explanation. My professor did no explain why the field was zero and we just had to assume it but that doesnt fit with me so thank you

[@johnojosipe5364]

Beautiful explanation

[@Random-sm5gi]

Thank you for the explanation boss

Intuition suggests the charges on a charged conductor would be positioned such that they are at a maximum distance from each other, therefore many would be inside the conductor. Why would they go to the surface?

[@shabari2235]

How positive charge lies in the surface ...

[@ashishkumarsharma1323]

positive charges simply mean the absence of electrons, it is not they are lying around

[@AbhayKumar-um8vl]

Sir how is electric field produced inside a wire ( if the wire is not straight) when we connect a both terminals of battery to that wire at the same time.

Beautiful explanation
