Option 3 : Static field intensity at the surface of conductor is directly normal to the surface

Under the static condition, the electric field inside the solid perfect conductor is zero in electrostatic equilibrium even if:

  • it is isolated
  • it is charged
  • it is present in the external electrostatic field

Now, it is known that a perfect solid conductor is an equipotential body. The potential inside the conductor is the same as the potential at the surface

Since the surface of the solid conductor is an equipotential surface hence the electric field will be perpendicular or in other words normal to the perfectly solid conductor surface.

The question given below consists of a statement, followed by three arguments numbered I, II and III. You have to decide which of the arguments is/are ‘strong' arguments and which is/are ‘weak' arguments and accordingly choose your answer from the alternatives given below each question. Statement:  The central government has told the Supreme Court that anti-adultery laws were required to protect the ‘sanctity of marriage and the institution of family', and any attempt to do away with these laws would hurt ‘Indian ethos'. The government was responding to a court notice on a public interest litigation which wanted the law struck down as it was not gender neutral and the provisions were tilted against men. Which among the following arguments support the above statement regarding the ‘revision of such laws' in the best possible manner Arguments: I. It seemed to suggest that women were chattel owned by men and could be guided and misguided. II. This would erode the sanctity of marriage as an institution and the societal fabric. The issue of making the provision gender neutral was already pending before the government. III. Any step towards decriminalising the offence in the interim would be detrimental to Indian ethos which gives paramount importance to the institution and sanctity of marriage.?
