Question

Which of the following statements about the electric potential inside a metal object are correct? Check all that apply. There may be charges on the surface of the metal or outside the metal which contribute to a nonzero potential Inside the metal. The potential is the same at every point Inside a metal at equilibrium, but it is not necessarily zero. The potential at any point Inside a metal at equilibrium is equal to the potential at the surface, which may be nonzero. The potential at any location Inside a metal at equilibrium is zero, because the electric field Is Zero Inside the metal. The potential difference between any two locations Inside a metal at equilibrium is zero, because the electric field inside the metal is zero.

Explanation / Answer

No matter what, electric field inside a conductor is zero. This means any two point inside a conductor should be at same potential,not necessarily Zero.

so, answers are,

(a) (b) (c) (e)
