Why is the linear coefficient of thermal expansion important for a restorative material?

1 answer:

5 0

Additionally, the coefficient of thermal expansion of the restorative material should be comparable to the coefficient of thermal expansion of the tooth structure, since a significant difference between the two could result in thermal-induced stress at the cavity wall and subsequent marginal failure.

This study's objective was to assess how thermal stress affected the marginal integrity of restorative materials with various adhesive and thermal characteristics. As an alternative to clinical trials, which are expensive and time-consuming, evaluation of restorative materials under laboratory simulations of clinical function is frequently carried out. Thermal cycling regimens, which are in vitro techniques that subject the restoration and the tooth to extremely high temperatures, are frequently used in laboratory simulations to replicate thermal stresses that naturally occur in vivo.

A package of aluminum foil contains 50. ft2 of foil, which weighs approximately 6.0 oz. Aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. Wh

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

1.36 x 10^-3 cm

Explanation:

Area = 50 ft^2 = 46451.5 cm^2

mass = 6 oz = 170.097 g

density = 2.70 g/cm^3

Let t be the thickness of foil in cm.

mass = volume x density

mass = area x thickness x density

170.097 = 46451.5 x t x 2.70

t = 1.36 x 10^-3 cm

Thus, the thickness of aluminium foil is 1.36 x 10^-3 cm.

Two objects, A and B, each of mass o.22 kg, are moving at 0.34 m/s directly toward each other. What is the speed of Object A aft

ki77a [65]

Theoretically, if the objects have the same mass and are moving towards each other at a speed of $0.34m s^{-1}$ , after a perfectly elastic collision, the object A is supposed to move with the same velocity in the opposite direction.

If we put negative charge between two similar positive charges then what is it's equilibrium? And how?

Gnesinka [82]

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Well it depends on the magnitude of charges. Generally , when both positive charges have the same magnitude , their equilibrium point is towards the centre joining the two charges. But if magnitude of one positive charge is higher than the other , then the equilibrium point will be towards the charge having lesser magnitude.

Now , a negative charge is placed in between the two positive charges. So , if both positive charges have same magnitude , they both pull the negative charge towards each other with an equal force. Thus the equilibrium point will be where the negative charge is placed because , both forces are equal , and opposite , so they cancel out each other at the point where the negative charge is placed. However if they are of different magnitudes , then the equilibrium point will be shifted towards the positive charge having less magnitude.

Thank you

The data table shows the cause of unintentional death for various age groups; what can you infer about the 15-24 age group?

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

D) They most likely died from not wearing a seatbelt.

Explanation:

Their death was caused by a "motor vehicle" (that's what MV stands for in this case). The most logical answer would be D.
