Because in Summer, due to warmer weatherm the (power) lines expand on warming. Since the supports do NOT move further apart, then the distance does not alter, so the extra length, due to expansion, allows the lines to 'droop'/sag more.

Why do clock go slower in summer and faster in winter?

Clocks do not actually go slower in summer and faster in winter. However, the perception of time passing differently in these seasons may be due to factors such as increased daylight hours in summer leading to more activities, and shorter days in winter which may make time feel like it is passing more quickly.


Why is it that the temperature is hotter in summer and colder in winter?

The temperature is hotter in summer and colder in winter because of the Earth's tilt on its axis. During summer, the hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, receiving more direct sunlight and heat. In winter, the hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, resulting in less direct sunlight and colder temperatures.

Why is a power line more likely to break in winter than in Summer even if it is loaded with the same weight?

Heat in the summer makes materials expand which make power lines somewhat elastic. During the cold months of winter the power lines contract. The difference of the reaction of the materials during seasons is why a power line is more likely to break in the winter than in the summer bearing the same weight.
