Here is a diagram of an electric cable. Electric cables contain wires. The materials labelled A and B are made of plastic. Plastic is used to cover the wires because,

• Plastic is flexible and a good conductor

• Plastic is inflexible and a good insulator

• Plastic is flexible and a good insulator

• the material is not plastic but actually rubber.

Alizhan has come back from football practice. He is feeling very hot and has been sweating a lot, so he want to plug in a cooling fan to help him recover. Before he plugs in the fan he is advised to dry his hands because....

• The fan is heavy and it could slip out of his hands.

• Electricity from the socket could travel in the sweat and give him an electric shock.

• His sweat could get on the plug and stop the fan from working.

• His sister tells him he is gross and she does not want his sweat on the fan.

Elif sets up a circuit, as shown in the diagram, to test different materials to see if they can carry electricity. After each test she opens the switch and then changes the test material. Why does she open the circuit each time?

• So that she does not give herself an electric shock.

• So that she does not break the battery

• So that she does not break the light bulb

• So that she can complete the circuit.

Etka set up the electrical circuit as shown in the diagram. The equipment he used to set up this circuit are...

• Battery, conductor, lightbulb, ammeter, motor, switch

• Battery conductor, voltmeter motor, switch.

• Battery, conductor, ammeter, buzzer, switch

• Battery, conductor, voltmeter, buzzer, switch
