Answer:

1)  is to prevent accidental contact with other conductors of electricity

2) to prevent getting shocked

3) Plastic helps dissipate the heat as well as prevent the wire from getting too hot and causing fire.

4) Without plastic, hot and neutral wires cannot be run in the same conductor or same wire

Explanation:

hope this helped and plz mark me as brainliest

ANSWER:

Reasons of using plastic around electrical wires are:

•To protect people from electric shock.

•To prevent the accidental contact of metallic partof wire with other conductor of electricity.

•To prevent the wire from getting too hot and causing fire.

•To conduct the electric flow of current properly .

Need some help
Keith_Richards [23]

The answer is C) the density of the rock

Density of rock is the dependent variable, because it depends on the temperature. The temperature can’t be the dependent variable because ,the density of a rock does not have magical powers that can change temperature of a room. However changing the temperature of the room ,will change the density of the rock. Hope this helps !

What happens to the size of atoms as we go from left to right on the periodic table? T
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Atomic size gradually decreases from left to right across a period of elements.

Explanation:

This is because, within a period or family of elements, all electrons are added to the same shell. However, at the same time, protons are being added to the nucleus, making it more positively charged.

use the general formulas for gravitational force and centripetal force to derive the relationship between speed and orbital radi
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

Explanation:

The universal law of gravitation is defined as:

F = G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}  (1)                

Where G is the gravitational constant, M and m are the masses of the two objects and r is the distance between them.

The centripetal force can be found by means of Newton's second law:

F = ma  (2)

Since it is a circular motion, the acceleration can be defined as:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}  (3)

Where v is the velocity and r is the orbital radius.

Replacing equation (3) in equation (2) it is gotten:

F = m\frac{v^{2}}{r}  (4)

Hence,

m\frac{v^{2}}{r} = G\frac{Mm}{r^{2}}

Then, v can be isolated:

mv^{2} = G\frac{Mmr}{r^{2}}

mv^{2} = G\frac{Mm}{r}

v^{2} = G\frac{Mm}{mr}

v^{2} = \frac{GM}{r}

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

So the relationship between speed and orbital radius is given by the expression v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}
