A few questions about electric field here:
1. Why do charges have to be on the outer surface of the conductor?
2. Why no charge on the inner surface of a hollow conductor?
3. If charges cannot be inside the conductor, how come the electric potential is constant throughout the conductor when an electrostatic equilibrium is reached? Isn't it that charges won't be able to redistribute throughout the conductor?
Must be wrong concepts. Please correct.
