Conductors, Capacitors, Dielectrics

Charges can freely move through them as in conductors.

They do not allow for free movement of charge.

They can conduct electricity well when heated.

They permit some minor redistribution of charges along their surface.

The interior has an induced magnetic field due to static charge distribution.

The interior contains some excess negative charge for balance.

The electric field inside is zero.

The electric field inside is non-uniform but not zero.

It develops uniform positive charge all around its surface regardless position related charged rod.

It remains unpolarized as long as it doesn't touch charged rod.

Inductive charges induced more evenly distributed than nonconductive materials due field influence by nearby charge source (charged rod).

It becomes polarized with opposite charges induced on each side facing away/towards from/to charged rod respectively.

The electric field points radially inward throughout.

The electric field is zero everywhere inside.

The electric field varies depending on position inside.

The electric field points radially outward throughout.

The sphere's isolation prevents any significant effect the ground might have upon it.

Excess negative ions in the air deposit onto the sphere, enhancing its overall positive charge.

Excess positive charge flows from the sphere to the Earth, allowing neutralization.

Ground provides an endless supply of electrons, which attract positive charge, leading to increased potential.

On both inner and outer surfaces equally.

Evenly distributed throughout the volume of the shell.

In a single cluster at any point on the surface.

On the outer surface of the shell.

They penetrate into the body of conductor uniformly distributing throughout it.

They stay close together where they were placed due to mutual attraction forces.

They spread out evenly over its outer surface only.

They congregate at one hemisphere depending upon orientation relative to Earth’s magnetic field lines directionally

Directly proportional to distance from center

Inversely proportional to distance from center

Constant but non-zero

Zero

Stronger protection against EMFs is achieved thus enhancing cage's capability protect inside components.

Some weakening shielding might occur due localized disturbances caused introduction new pathway for existing freemoving charges within structure.

The grounding does not affect overall behavior of the cage since it already shields exterior electromagnetic fields effectively by redistributing internal charges nullify incoming effects.

No noticeable change except possibly slight increase temperature region where ground connected.

Surface charge density on conductor will be balanced with no excess positive or negative distribution.

Surface charge density remains equal all over the conductor's surface irrespective of its position relative to the source of the external field.

Surface charge density is the lowest in regions where conductor is farthest away from the source of the external field since charge moves away due to repulsion.

Surface charge density is highest on regions of the conductor that are closest to the source of the external electric field.
