The electrostatic potential on the surface of a charged conducting sphere is \(100~\text{V}\). Two statements are made in this regard.

Statement I: At any point inside the sphere, electric intensity is zero.
Statement II: At any point inside the sphere, the electrostatic potential is \(100~\text{V}\).


Which of the following is a correct statement?

1. Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
2. Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
3. Statement I is true, Statement II is also true and Statement I is the cause of Statement II.
4. Statement I is true, Statement II is also true but the statements are independent.
