Hello All,
I am new to this great forum and have a question about current density and perfect conductors.
If the conductor is perfect, the conductivity is infinite, E is said to be
zero inside.
For a a certain voltage (say 5V) does the current flow inside the conductor or on the surface? why?
For waves traveling in lossy dielectrics (materials with some conductivity) energy is lost. But then I read that a perfect conductor does not dissipate any energy since there is no work to push the charges.
Confused...
thank you
