Discussion
True or false: the potential inside a hollow charged conductor is zero.
Answer: B
Correct answer: False, the interior sitting at the same potential as the shell itself
Zero field within means constant potential within, and continuity at the surface fixes that constant at the shell’s own value. The interior would be at zero only if the shell were earthed, which is a different arrangement.
