Question 5 (3 points)
Which statement about special-interest groups is true?

Question 5 options:

Special-interest groups are described in some depth in Article II, Section 8 of the United States Constitution, which shows that the Founders viewed these groups as important.

There is very little controversy over the role of special-interest groups in American society because special-interest groups have limited power or influence.

People form special-interest groups to strengthen their voice, pool their resources, and improve their ability to influence the decisions of government officials.

In elections, citizens who are members of special-interest groups must vote in ways that align with the aims and beliefs of the group.

To understand the behavior of the electric field at the surface of a conductor, and its relationship to surface charge on the conductor. a conductor is placed in an external electrostatic field. the external field is uniform before the conductor is placed within it. the conductor is completely isolated from any source of current or charge. part a: which of the following describes the electric field inside this conductor? it is in the same direction as the original external field. it is in the opposite direction from that of the original external field. it has a direction determined entirely by the charge on its surface. it is always zero. part b: the charge density inside the conductor is: 0non-zero; but uniformnon-zero; non-uniforminfinite part c: assume that at some point just outside the surface of the conductor, the electric field has magnitude e and is directed toward the surface of the conductor. what is the charge density η on the surface of the conductor at that point? express your answer in terms of e and ϵ0
