question 2 of 15
birds sitting on a single power line dont get shocked because there is no path for current to flow to the _________.

Explanation:

Electric shock occurs when there is a potential difference and a complete circuit for current to flow. When a bird sits on a single power line, there is no path for current to flow to the ground (earth). The bird is at the same electrical potential as the wire it's on, and without a potential difference (like to a lower - potential ground), no significant current passes through the bird.

Answer:

ground
