The charge within a conductor, when in electrostatic equilibrium, resides entirely on its surface and not within its bulk. This is because charges within a conductor redistribute themselves in response to the electrostatic forces, moving until they reach a configuration where the electric field inside the conductor is zero. Consequently, there are no excess charges in the interior of the conductor; all excess charge is found on its surface.
c
Explanation: No charges exist in a conductor. An illustration for this statement is that, it
is safer to stay inside a car rather than standing under a tree during lightning. Since the
car has a metal body, no charges will be possessed by it to get ionized by the lightning.
