What is the dielectric constant of a pure conductor?

Dielectric constant is the ratio of permittivity of a medium to the permittivity of free space. How to find dielectric constant of a conductor?

Why is the general definition of electric fields in dielectrics

2 According to the definition of the dielectric constant (k) for a dielectric, the electric field in the dielectric is defined as the corresponding electric field in vacuum divided by k. We

Why does potential decrease when a dielectric is introduced?

Yes I understand the additive properties of capacitors (which come from the additive properties of potential while keeping charge conserved). And I suppose that this

Prove a dielectric with infinite dielectric constant behaves as a

4 I read the following problem: Prove that a dielectric medium for which $varepsilon to infty$ behaves as a perfect conductor in the presence of static electric fields. So, the easy part is that

What is the physical reasons for variations in the tangential and

According to Dielectric to Dielectric Boundary conditions, the tangential components of the electric field E remain continuous at the boundary of two dielectrics while

Difference between dielectric constant and dielectric function

I''m confused by the definition of dielectric constant. We all know that dielectric is function of wavelength, because materials respond in different ways depending on the energy of the light.

Conductor-Dielectric Boundary Conditions

2 We have a conductor of resistivity $rho$ and has a boundary with a dielectric of permittivity $epsilon$ and we have displacement vector $vec D$ at an angle $alpha$ with
