The rubber protects him from being electrocuted by the flow of current going through the plug.
Hope this helped!!
Answer:
<h2>Magnitude of the second charge is

</h2>
Explanation:
According to columbs law;
F = 
F is the attractive or repulsive force between the charges = 12N
q1 and q2 are the charges
let q1 = - 8.0 x 10^-6 C
q2=?
r is the distance between the charges = 0.050m
k is the coulumbs constant =9*10⁹ kg⋅m³⋅s⁻⁴⋅A⁻²
On substituting the given values
12 = 9*10⁹*( - 8.0 x 10^-6)q2/0.050²
Cross multiplying

<h2>
So, the correct answers are:</h2>
Travels in longitudinal waves
Travels most slowly through a gas
Speeds up when temperature is increased
Is caused by vibration
Explanation for correct answers:
Yes, it does travel in longitudinal waves
Yes, sounds weird, but travels faster in the water
Yes, does speed up when temperature is increased
And yes, Is caused by vibration.
<h2>
Wrong answer is:</h2>
Can travel through a vacuum
Explanation for wrong answer:
actually, in space, there is NO sound, because there are no particals for the sound to vibrate with, there's just empty SPACE.
Absolute zero is not about numbers. It's about temperature, and the
motion of molecules in gases.
You know that the temperature we feel with our skin is the result of the
average speed of all the tiny molecules zipping around or vibrating in
the solid, liquid, or gas.
The faster they're all moving, the warmer the substance feels to us.
The slower they're all moving, the cooler the substance feels to us.
When molecules slow down to zero and lose all of their kinetic energy,
that temperature is what we call 'absolute zero' ... if they're not moving
at all, then they can't move any slower.
