Question

Which condition defines electrostatic equilibrium?

Options

• Charges continuously move along the conductor's surface.

• A conductor is connected to a high-voltage source.

• Charges in a conductor are at rest, and no further motion of charges occurs.

• The electric field inside a conductor is increasing.

Answer 1

Electrostatic equilibrium is the condition in which charges in a conductor are at rest. No further motion of charges occurs.
