  2. Perfect conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_conductor

    In electrostatics, a perfect conductor is an idealized model for real conducting materials. The defining property of a perfect conductor is that static electric field and the charge density both vanish in its interior. If the conductor has excess charge, it accumulates as an infinitesimally thin layer of surface charge. An external electric ...

  3. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    A perfect conductor has infinite conductivity, σ = ∞, while a perfect dielectric is a material that has no conductivity at all, σ = 0; this latter case, of real-valued permittivity (or complex-valued permittivity with zero imaginary component) is also associated with the name lossless media. [18]

  4. Electrical conductor - Wikipedia

    where is the length of the conductor, measured in metres [m], A is the cross-section area of the conductor measured in square metres [m 2], σ is the electrical conductivity measured in siemens per meter (S·m −1), and ρ is the electrical resistivity (also called specific electrical resistance) of the material, measured in ohm-metres (Ω·m ...

  5. Introduction to electromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introduction_to...

    The charges in a perfect conductor rearrange so that the electric field is always zero inside. A conductor is a material that allows electrons to flow easily. The most effective conductors are usually metals because they can be described fairly accurately by the free electron model in which electrons delocalize from the atomic nuclei , leaving ...

  6. Interface conditions for electromagnetic fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interface_conditions_for...

    This is done by assuming conditions at the boundaries which are physically correct and numerically solvable in finite time. In some cases, the boundary conditions resume to a simple interface condition. The most usual and simple example is a fully reflecting (electric wall) boundary - the outer medium is considered as a perfect conductor.

    In 2016, vehicle attacks internationally represented more than half of all terrorism-related deaths that year, according to one researcher's analysis of the open-source Global Terrorism Database

  8. Relative permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_permittivity

    where λ is the wavelength, c is the speed of light in vacuum and κ = μ 0 c / 2π = 59.95849 Ω ≈ 60.0 Ω is a newly introduced constant (units ohms, or reciprocal siemens, such that σλκ = ε r remains unitless).
