Answer #1

Electric field inside a solid conductor, positive or negative, is zero.

As charges want to attain equilibrium so they come on surface , to minimize the repulsion among them. So, the total charge of a conductor resides on its surface and the net charge inside a conductor remains zero. Thus, field inside it is zero.
