The figure at right shows an electrically charged conducting solid cube. The surface is equipotential, as is always the case for conductors in electrostatic equilibrium. What is the electric potential difference between points a and b?
If a is on surface:
The electric potential throughout the surface of the conducting
body is the same, So the electric potential difference
between points a and b is 0 V
If a is inside cube
The electric field in a conductor is zero. So all the points in the solid cube will be equipotential with surface. Hence electric potential difference between points a and b will be 0 V.

2. Gauss' Law See Figure 1. A solid, conducting sphere of radius a has total charge (-)2Q uniformly distributed along its surface, where Q is positive. Concentric with this sphere is a charged, conducting spherical shell whose inner and outer radii are b and c, respectively. The total charge on the conducting shell is (-)8Q. Find the electric potential for r < a. Take the potential out at infinity to be 0.
Select True or False for the following statements about conductors in electrostatic equilibrium. Charges prefer to be uniformly distributed throughout the volume of a conductor. The electric field inside the conducting material is always zero. All points of a conductor are at the same potential. Just outside the surface of a conductor, the electric field is always zero.
The figure below shows a closed Gaussian surface in the shape of a

A small, solid conducting sphere of radius r1 sits inside a hollow conducting spherical shell of inner radius r2 and outer radius r3. A potential difference of magnitude V is placed across the inner and outer conductors so that there is a net charge of -Q on the inner conductor and +Q on the outer conductor. Suppose a thin but finite thickness conducting shell was placed between the sphere and the outer shell. This extra shell is electrically isolated. Would...
