Answer:
The electric field on the surface of a conductor is perpendicular to its surface.
Explanation:
A conductor is a material that has the ability to transport electric charge through it.
Inside such a conductor that is in equilibrium, the electric field is zero, so that the charge accumulates on the surface of the conductor.
The electric field on the surface of a conductor is perpendicular to its surface.
This external electric field on the surface of the condutor can be calculated by Gauss's law, which establishes the equivalence of the flow across a surface with the net charge inside the conductor divided by the permittivity in the vacuum.
