What is a false statement? The electric field strength on the surface of a charged conductor depends on the surface charge density. The net charge of the interior of a charged conductor is zero. The potential on the surface of a charged conductor is constant. The potential on the surface of a conductor is always zero. The electric field strength decreases as you move farther away from a charged conductor.

Option - (D, E):

The potential on the surface of a conductor is always zero. And the electric field strength decreases as you move farther away from a charged conductor.

Explanation:

A conductor is characterized by zero amount of charges at its center, while the surface of the surface of the conductor has an equal amount of charge distributed on it. As the electric field is the amount of force applied on a test charge when placed inside its parameter. While the electric field is the parameters or the area of force which the charge particles experiences the intensity of the charge particle (either it can be positive or negative lines of charges).
