Tungsten Permittivity: Properties & Values

Click For Summary
Tungsten's permittivity is challenging to define due to its conductive properties, as permittivity typically applies to dielectric materials. While permittivity measures how an electric field interacts with a medium, tungsten's behavior as a conductor complicates this concept. The permittivity of conductors can be represented as a complex number, often including a significant imaginary component. Users seeking tungsten's permittivity may not find straightforward values due to these complexities. For further information, a recommended resource is the refractive index database.

Good evening,

So... I am looking for the Tungsten permettivity and i don't find this feature...

I have searched on Wikipedia, some material data but i don't find...

Do you know what is the Tungsten permettivity?

Thanks.

Is not permittivity a dielectric phenomena? Permittivity is a measure of how an electric field affects, and is affected by, a dielectric medium.

As Doug says, tungsten is a conductor. Why are you looking for its permittivity?
 

Thread 'Does acceleration affect impact energy vs constant velocity?'

I do not have a good working knowledge of physics yet. I tried to piece this together but after researching this, I couldn’t figure out the correct laws of physics to combine to develop a formula to answer this question. Ex. 1 - A moving object impacts a static object at a constant velocity. Ex. 2 - A moving object impacts a static object at the same velocity but is accelerating at the moment of impact. Assuming the mass of the objects is the same and the velocity at the moment of impact...
