Description
This lecture covers the concepts of charging a conductor by induction, the Faraday cage experiment demonstrating zero electric field inside a conductor, and the force on charges in a conductor sheet. It explains how electrons redistribute when a charged rod is brought close to a neutral sphere, the significance of a Faraday cage in containing electromagnetic energy, and the screening effect of surface charges on the electric field inside a conductor. Additionally, it discusses the uniform distribution of positive charge on a sphere after electron redistribution and the force per unit area on surface charges. The lecture concludes with a summary emphasizing the zero electric field inside conductors and the application of Gauss's law.
