Answer:

it lowers the voltage in homes

Explanation:

this is due to safety reasons as a human cant survive power line voltages which are between 150k and 760k and if you plugged anything short of a piece of 1 inch thick wire not counting insulation it would immediately start smoking and burn the cable.

Answer:

Not Equal.

Explanation:

As the direction from New York to Miami (due South) is different from the direction from New York to Chicago (due West), the 2 velocities are not equal despite having the same magnitude. If both cars are to travel to the same destination at same speed, their velocities would be equal.
