Primary6 unit two electric conductors and electric insulators including give reasons Positive/Negative/Neutral Objects - How are they different? Positive: has fewer electrons than protons Negative: Has more electrons than protons Neutral: has equal numbers of protons and electrons Laws of Electric Charges - What are they? How are they applied? Like charges repel, opposites charges attract, charged AND neutral objects attract Induced Charge Separation - Explain this process. A shift of the position of electrons when a charged object is brought near it. If the charged object is positive, the electrons will move toward it. If the charged object is negative, the electrons will move away from it. Charging by Friction (What is happening with the charges? - Know electrostatic series examples) Process in which objects made from different materials rub against each other, producing a net static charge on each object. When charged by friction, one material will have a stronger attraction to electrons and will pull the electrons off the other material Charging by Conduction (Be able to explain what the electrons are doing) Charging by contact with a charged object. An object that becomes charged by contact always gets the same type of charge that is on the object that charges it. Grounding (Be able to explain how it happens) A method of removing static charges from an object. Electrons from the ground move up to the charged object. If the object is negative, electrons leave the object. If the object is positive, electrons enter the object. The ground always remains neutral Conductors/Insulators/Semiconductors (Know examples for each and characteristics) Conductor: A material that allows electrons to flow through it easily. GOOD CONDUCTORS: Silver, copper, gold, aluminium, magnesium, iron, usually metals Insulator: A material that prevents electrons from flowing through it. Plastic, wood and glass are examples. To prevent electric shocks, conductive wires are wrapped in insulators. Semiconductors: Have special properties that make them fair conductors, they are the foundation of modern electronics, including radios, computers and telephones. Charging by Induction (How do we induce a PERMANENT charge?) You can permanently charge an object using induction by attaching a conducting wire to the neutral object that goes to the ground Electric Discharge - What causes it? Know everyday examples. How is lightning formed? When two objects that have a charge imbalance are brought close together or come in contact with each other, electrons are transferred rapidly. Electrons move from the object with a more negative charge to the object with the less negative charge. Lightning occurs through an imbalance of charge between clouds and the ground. Negative charge at the bottom of a cloud repels the electrons at the earth's surface which move away, causing the ground to become positively charged Current Electricity: Refers to the electrons that flow in a controlled way through a conductor Forms of Current Electricity - Alternating Current (AC) vs Direct Current (DC) - How do they differ? AC: Electrons move back and forth, alternating their direction. produced in generating stations and is then distributed over long distances ex. Something plugged into a wall outletelectric conductor and insulatorElectrostatics The section of CBSE Class 12 Physics electrostatic potential and capacitance notes mainly deals with the in-depth analysis of electromagnetic phenomena when they are not performing any movements. Additionally, it is divided into ten further sub-topics to study the companion processes of reaching the state. These are - 1. Electric charge In this section of Physics ch 2 Class 12 notes, you get to learn about the basic features of electric charge and its expression in Physics. Along with its basics, the sections help to understand the full potential of charge. Different aspects of Charge included in Class 12 Physics Chapter 2 notes are - Definition Type: Positive and Negative Charge Unit and dimensional formula Point Charge Properties of Charge Comparison of Charge and Mass Methods of Charging Electroscope 2. Coulomb's Law Force is created when charges of opposite signs attract each other, and they repulse if the signs are the same. Coulomb's law tries to define this phenomenon through a mathematical formula, explicitly mentioned in Physics Class 12 notes Chapter 2. Moreover, there is key information about the variation of the constant k and its effect on a medium. Coulomb's law's vector form and the principle of superimposition are also explained in ch 2 Physics Class 12 notes. (Image will be uploaded soon) 3. Electric Field As stated in Class 12 Physics Chapter 2 notes, every positively or negatively charged particle has their respective electric fields. It feels a force at the time of interaction which might be attraction or repulsion. As it arises from electric charge, it is crucial to know about its different parts like - Electric field intensity Relation between electric force and electric field Super imposition of electric field Point charge Continuous charge distributions Properties of Electric Field Lines Motion of Charged Particles in an Electric field Learning more about the electric field from electric potential and capacitance notes Class 12 helps a student to get a grasp of upcoming chapters. 4. Electric Potential Energy When energy helps a charge to move from an electric field, it is known as the Electric Potential Energy. This section of electrostatic chapter Class 12 notes requires a student to study the Electron volt (eV), and the potential energy that an n number of charges can hold. 5. Electric Potential This section of Class 12 Physics Chapter 2 notes focuses on in-depth learning of Electric Potential or Voltage. Basically, it defines the potential movement of energy. 6. Relation between Electric Field and Potential Apart from knowing more about the relationship between the two values, Physics Class 12 Chapter 2 notes also discuss equipotential surfaces. 7. Electric Dipole Essentially, 'Dipoles' are two opposite points of charge represented with q and –q, with their distance between each other being 2a. Electric Dipoles are crucial in your study of Physics Class 12 Chapter 2 notes to learn more about electric fields and their potential. Additionally, Class 12 Physics Chapter 2 notes focus on the influence of electric dipoles on a uniform electric field mainly through Force and Torque, Work, and Potential Energy. In the last part of Electrostatics, further focus is on using the formulas to their fullest potential. It includes subsections of Electric Field, Electric Potential Energy, Electric Potential, and Electric Dipole. In the notes for electrostatic potential and capacitance, you will find proper solutions accompanied by clear and crisp diagrams for better understanding. 8. Gauss's Law Apart from just discussing the Gauss's Law, in Physics Class 12 ch 2 notes there is a thorough explanation of its properties and applications. The Gauss' Law states that net electric flux passing through a hypothetical closed surface is equal to the net electric charge present within the same closed surface. Being a broad part of the whole chapter, you may need to spend a little more time on it. Moving forward, it starts discussing the properties of conductors in relation to Gauss's Law. The Class 12 Physics notes Chapter 2 perfectly defines the journey to Gauss' Law from Coulomb's Law. Here is the Gauss's Law present in the Class 12 Physics ch 2 notes, (image will be uploaded soon) 9. Capacitors There is a dedicated section about Capacitors in the Class 12 Physics Chapter 2 notes elucidating its functions and importance as storage of potential electric energy. After explaining the structure of a capacitor, it points out the different types, parallel plate, spherical and cylindrical. The section of Chapter 2 notes of Physics Class 12 is further divided into subheads like: Properties of an ideal battery Grouping of capacitors Simple circuits (Series and Parallel) Dielectric Van de Graaff generator Combination of drops Charge distribution method Wheatstone Bridge-based circuit Extended Wheatstone Bridge Infinite network of capacitors Redistribution of charge between two capacitors Vedantu prepares the Class 12 Physics Chapter 2 notes with help from subject matter experts.

Important Questions A charge of 4 × 10–8C is uniformly distributed on the surface of a spherical conductor, having a radius of 15 cm. Determine the electric field just outside this sphere at a point that is 15 cm from the centre of this sphere. Determine the capacitance given that the distance between the two plates has been reduced by half and the parallel plate capacitor holds a capacitance of 20 pF (where 1pF = 10-12 F) having air between the two plates. What will be the total capacitance of a combination where three capacitors, each having a capacitance of 20 pF, are connected in series. A square having a side of 10 cm has a 500 µC charge at its centre. Determine the work done to move a charge of 10 µC between two points that are diagonally opposite each other on the square. At an equatorial point, what will be the electrostatic potential because of an electric dipole? Calculate the work done to move a test charge, q, through a length of 1 cm along the equatorial axis of an electric dipole? Polarisation A capacitor has its plates enclosed in a medium that can be filled by insulating substances. A net dipole moment is then induced by an electric field in the dielectric. This event causes the field in an opposite direction. Equipotential Surface An equipotential surface is a type of surface where the potential always has a constant value. If considered as a point charge, the concentric spheres that are centred at a particular area of this charge are basically equipotential surfaces.

Temporary materials: Some materials are meant to be placed in the oral cavity for a short period of time for different reasons. • Temporary crowns: While a permanent crown is prepared in the dental laboratory, the patient must wait for few days before it can be fabricated and cemented into place. Does patient experience any problems during this time period? If the tooth is vital (the pulp is alive), the patient is likely to experience pain and sensitivity while eating and drinking, also it looks unesthetic. What can be done to solve this problem? A temporary crown is placed before the patient leaves the clinic. It is constructed and luted in the same appointment in which the crown preparation is done. Temporary crowns are not very strong or esthetic but they serve adequately till the permanent crown is ready to be cemented. • Temporary restorations: Sometimes it is difficult to decide immediately the best line of treatment for a particular tooth. The exact condition of the pulp may not be obvious to the dentist from the patient's symptoms. A dentist removes all or part of the decay and then places a temporary restoration to have time to observe the behaviour of the pulp or to give the pilip time to heal before deciding the further treatment required. Classification based on Location of Fabrication 4,9 Materials can be classified based on the location of fabrication into: • Direct restorative materials. • Indirect restorative materials Direct restorative materials: They include those materials which are used to restore cavity preparations directly in the oral cavity (Box 1.5). Box 1.5: Examples of direct restorative materials Amalgam, composites, glass ionomer and other materials, which set by chemical reactions in the mouth. Indirect restorative materials: It includes those restorations which must be fabricated outside the mouth, indirectly on a cast/ model/ die, because their processing condition would harm oral tissues. Materials used in the construction of such prosthesis are called indirect restorative materials (Box 1.6). Box 1.6: Examples of indirect restorative materials Gold inlays, crowns of metal, ceramic and polymers, which are processed at elevated temperatures. Some indirect composite restorations can be processed under specific wavelength of light, e.g. Ceramage. Classification based on Longevity of Use 1. Permanent restorations: These restorations are not planned to be replaced for a particular time period. Though they are referred to as permanent, actually they are not, e.g. fillings, crowns, bridges and dentures do not last forever (Fig. 1.5). 2. Temporary restorations: These restorations are planned to be replaced in a short period of time, such as few days to weeks.

Introducton to Dental Materials Dental materials Box 1.7: Characteristics of metals 1. High thermal and electrical conductivity 2. Ductility (pure metals are very soft and they can be bent without breaking) 3. Opacity (they do not transmit light) 4. Luster (they have a surface that strongly reflects light and appears bright and shiny) 5. They tend to dissolve to some extent in water or other aqueous solutions, producing cations. 6. All metals are white (actually gray) except for gold, which is yellow, and copper, which is reddish. 7. All metals are solid at room temperature except mercury, which is liquid at room temperature and is used with silver alloys as amalgam. 8. All metals have high melting temperatures because of high strength of the metallic bond that holds the atoms together. 3. Polymers 4. Composites Composites are mixtures of two or more of the first three classes in which the different components remain distinct from one another in the final structure. A common example is composite resin. Fig. 1.7a: Three-dimensional structure of iron (metal) Metals Metals are the oldest of the three classes of materials that have been used as dental materials. Metals are characterized by metallic bonds (Box 1.7) which will be discussed in the next chapter. Metals solidify with their atoms in a regular or crystalline arrangement (see Chapter 2), often in the form of a cube (Fig. 1.7a). example, temporary fillings done in a tooth during root canal treatment, which have to be replaced within 2-4 days during subsequent visits. They are used to protect the tooth and provide function till the final restoration is done. 3. Interim restoration: At times, dental treatment requires "long-term" definite temporary restorations or "interim" restorations. For examle, a 7-year-old child, met with trauma and fractured one of his central incisors. A large composite build- up may serve his immediate requirement until the root formation is completed and a permanent crown is placed. 5 Classification based on the Chemical Nature of the Material These are the atoms that make up a material and the way they are bonded together determine the properties of that materiaLS Weak bonds make for weak materials and vice versa (Table 1.4). Materials can be classified into different categories based on their primary atomic bonds (Fig. 1.6): 1. Metals 2. Ceramics Fig. 1.6: Classification of dental materials based on chemical nature 12 Basis of Material Science Box 1.9: Benefits of ceramics in dentistry 1. Many ceramic oxides are used as pigmenting agents. These oxides produce good range of colors. Due to this characteristic, we are able to match almost any tooth color with good esthetic results. 2. They are inert, i.e. not chemically reactive. This quality provides ceramics with good bio- compatibility. 3. Ceramic materials are translucent, like natural teeth. This translucency gives the ceramic crown a more natural appearance than any other dental material. Fig. 1.7b: Internal arrangement of tetrahedral structure of ceramic (silica) four large oxygen atoms surround smaller silicon atom Ceramics A ceramic is a compound formed by the union of a metallic and a non-metallic element (Box 1.8). Most of these materials are oxides, formed by the union of oxygen with metals such as silicon, aluminum, calcium and magnesium (Fig.1.7b). Ceramics may be simple or complex. Examples of simple ceramics are alumina and silica. Examples of complex ceramics are feldspar (potassium aluminum silicate) and kaolin (hydrated aluminum silicate). Ceramics may be crystalline or non- crystalline (i.e. amorphous). Porcelain is a specific type of ceramic used extensively in dentistry (Box 1.9). Box 1.8: Characteristics of ceramics 1. High melting points. 2. Brittleness, which means they cannot be bent or deformed (no sliding) to any extent without actually cracking and breaking. 3. They are poor conductor of heat and electricity. 4. They are chemically inert. 5. They have excellent esthetic result in terms of matching natural teeth. Fig. 1.8: Stucture of synthetic polymer Polymers They are the latest addition (early to mid- 1900s) to dental materials. Most of the polymers are nowadays synthesized by humans. Polymers are giant, long-chain organic molecules (Fig. 1.8). Polymers are characterized by covalent bonds within each molecule, giving them tremendous strength in a single direction. Try to break a nylon rope by pulling it! They are poor conductors of heat and electri- city. Most polymers have a structure containing thousands of carbon atoms linked together like beads on a string. Others, such as silicone polymers are formed with silicon-oxygen bonds. Introducton to Dental Materials Table 1.4: Characteristics of different materials 13 Characteristics Bond Properties Crystal structure Metals Metallic bonding High strength and hardness, high electrical and thermal conductivity BCC, FCC, or HCP unit cells Ceramics Ionic or covalent bonding, or both High hardness and stiffness, electrically insulating, refractory, and chemically inert Crystalline or amorphous Polymers Covalent bonding Low sensitivity, high electrical resistivity, and low thermal conductivity, strength and stiffness vary widely Amorphous and crystalline Composites Composites are combinations of any of the basic ceramic, metallic and polymeric materials (Box 1.10). Each material that makes up composites is called a phase. Their properties tend to be somewhere between those of their basic constituents and are used to enhance their performance, longevity and handling chracterstics. Box 1.10: Types of composites in dentistry 1. Ceramic - metallic composite: Tungsten carbide bur. 2. Metal - polymer composite: Die materials in dental laboratory. 3. Ceramic - polymer composite: Enamel, dentin, bone and restorative composites. A composite is a kind of "combination" of materials, which compliment each other. The properties lacking in one material are compensated by those of the other material. For example, restorative composite has two phases, namely resin and fillers. Teeth and bones are examples of natural composites. Enamel is a composite of hydroxyapatite (which is a ceramic material) and protein (which is a polymer). EVALUATION OF DENTAL MATERIALS Most manufacturers of dental materials maintain a quality assurance programme (As per international standard like ADA specifications) and materials are thoroughly tested before being released into the market for dental practitioner (Fig. 1.9). Laboratory Evaluations Most ADA/ ANSI specifications involve laboratory tests. The tests performed as per these specifications are useful but they all are performed in vitro, (carried out in the laboratory away from the clinical conditions) which have a lot of limitations in clinical practice.lO Clinical Notes 1. For example, most of the direct restorative materials are tested for their compressive strength but ultimately the material is subjected to a combination of compressive, tensile and shear stresses, which may decide the final success or failure of the material under masticatory load. 2. Similarly upper dentures mostly fracture along the midline because of bending. Hence a bending or transverse strength ~B-a-s-is-o-f-M-a-t-e-ria-I-S~c-ie-n-c-e-------------- ---------. test is far more meaningful for denture base materials than a compression test. Clinical Trials The majority of new materials are subjected to extensive clinical trials normally in co-operation with a dental college or hospital departments prior to their release. CONCLUSION As the number of available materials is going up, it is important that the dentist remains more aware about new products so that their judgement about the selection of material remains successful. Materials which have not been thoroughly evaluated should be avoided, specially with clinical dentistry falling under Consumer Protection Act (CPA).

Fiecare tip de conexiune și echipamentele însoțitoare au cerințe de cablare stipulate de standardele layer-ului fizic. Standardele layer-ului fizic specifică utilizarea diferiților conectori. Aceste standarde specifică dimensiunile mecanice ale conectorilor și proprietățile electrice acceptabile pentru fiecare tip. Mediile de rețea folosesc mufe modulare pentru a asigura o conectare și deconectare facilă. De asemenea, poate fi utilizat un singur tip de conector fizic pentru mai multe tipuri de conexiuni. De exemplu, conectorul RJ-45 este utilizat în întreaga lume în LAN-uri cu un tip de mediu și în unele WAN-uri cu un alt tip de mediu. Cablu Torsadat Neecranat Cablarea UTP este mediul cel mai utilizat din rețelistică. Cablarea UTP, terminată cu conectorii RJ-45 este utilizată pentru interconectarea hosturilor din rețea cu echipamente de rețelistică intermediare, precum switchuri și routere. În LAN-uri, cablul UTP constă în patru perechi de fire codate cu culori care au fost înfășurate împreună iar apoi puse într-un înveliș flexibil de plastic care protejează împotriva deteriorărilor fizice minore. Înfășurarea firelor ajută la protecția împotriva interferenței semnalului de la celelalte fire. Așa cum se vede în figură, codurile de culoare identifică perechile individuale și firele din perechi și ajută la terminarea cablului. Cablu Torsadat Ecranat (STP) Acestea asigură o protecție mai bună împotriva zgomotului decât cablarea UTP. În orice caz, comparat cu cablul UTP,cablul STP este mult mai scump și mai dificil de instalat. Ca și cablul UTP, STP folosește un conector RJ-45. Cablul STP combină tehnicile de protecție pentru a contracara EMI și RFI și torsadarea cablurilor pentru a contracara crosstalk-ul. Pentru a beneficia în totalitate de protecție, cablurile STP sunt mufate cu conectori de date STP speciali. În cazul în care cablul nu este împământat corect, ecranarea va acționa ca o antenă și va recepționa semnale nedorite. Există mai multe tipuri diferite de cabluri STP cu caracteristici diferite. În orice caz, există două tipuri de STP: • Cablul STP protejează întregul pachet de fire cu folie, eliminând toată interferența într-o manieră virtuală (cea mai obișnuită). • Cablul STP protejează întregul pachet de fire cu folie, dar și firele individuale cu folie, eliminând toată interferența. Cablul STP arătat folosește patru perechi de fire, fiecare împachetată într-o folie, care este apoi împachetată într-o altă folie metalică. Pentru mulți ani, STP a fost structura de cablare specificată pentru utilizarea în instalațiile de rețea Token Ring. Având în vedere declinul observat pentru Token Ring, cererea pentru cablarea torsadată ecranată a scăzut. În orice caz, noul standard GB pentru Ethernet are o clauză pentru utilizarea cablării STP care furnizează un interes reînnoit pentru cablarea torsadată ecranată. Cablu coaxial Cablul coaxial (coax) își are numele din faptul că are doi conductori care împart aceeași axă. Așa cum se arată în figură, cablul coaxial constă în: • Un conductor din cupru utilizat pentru a transmite semnale electronice. • Conductorul din cupru este înconjurat de un layer din izolație din material plastic. • Materialul de izolare este înconjurat cu o împletitură din cupru sau folie metalică ce se comportă ca un al doilea fir în circuit și ca un scut pentru conductorul intern. Acest layer secundar sau scut reduce și cantitatea de interferență electromagnetică exterioară. • Întregul cablu este acoperit de un înveliș pentru a îl proteja împotriva deteriorărilor fizice minore. Notă:Există tipuri diferite de conectori utilizate cu cablul coaxial. Cablul coaxial a fost utilizat de obicei în televiziunea prin cablu capabilă să transmită într-o singură direcție. A fost utilizată intens și în instalările Ethernet. Deși cablul UTP a înlocuit cablul coaxial în instalările moderne de Ethernet, design-ul cablului coaxial a fost adaptat pentru utilizarea la: • Instalări wirelessCablurile coaxiale atașează antene la echipamentele wireless. Cablul coaxial transportă energia frecvenței radio (RF) între antene și echipamentul radio. • Instalări ale Internetului prin cabluFurnizorii de servicii prin cablu își transformă sistemele unidirecționale în sisteme bidirecționale pentru a asigura conectivitatea la Internet pentru clienții lor. Pentru a asigura aceste servicii, sunt înlocuite porțiuni din cablul coaxial și elementele ce suportă amplificarea cu cabluri din fibră optică. În orice caz, conexiunea finală de la locația clientului și cablarea din interior este tot coaxială. Această utilizare combinată de fibră și cablu coaxial este denumit HFC (hybrid fiber coax).
