C
Answer:
C
In a charged conductor, the charges distribute themselves uniformly on its surface. This distribution of charges creates an electric field inside the conductor. However, within a conductor, the electric field is zero, and therefore, the potential is constant throughout its surface, making it an equipotential surface. The electric field lines are perpendicular to the surface of the conductor.
