A metallic rod is placed in a uniform electric field. Select the correct option.

814-4

  • A

    Inside the rod there will be an induced electric field from $B$ to $A.$

  • B

    Free electrons will accumulate at the end $B$ of the rod.

  • C

    The potential of the end $A$ will be more than that at $B.$

  • D

    The electric field outside the rod will not change due to the induced charged in the rod.
