Inside a conducting electrode the electrostatic field is zero, excluding D. On a curved surface the field is stronger where charge density concentrates, usually near smaller radii of curvature.
A and C are sharper than B, but the facing same-potential electrode shields the gap-facing side C. The exposed outer tip A therefore has the greatest field among the marked points. Hence **A**.
