Is their any other difference between ac and dc current?
Yes, there is. AC = Alternating Current, the direction of the current alternates, thus the name. DC = Direct Current. Things like computers need DC (they use a AC to DC converter inside the power supply to convert it) Hope that helps a bit.
How can you block ac current?
You can block AC current by using a filter with a pass-band that is outside the frequency of the AC current.
What device converts dc current to ac current?
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
What is advantage of ac generation rather than dc generation?
!! In india and most of the other countries user ac current. Hence, all the appliances are ac dependable. So generating ac directly would allow up to directly feed the appliances without any converter circuit.
What is the sign for ac and DC current?
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
Why should current be reversed in an AC circuit?
The current in any AC circuit reverses every cycle.
Is their any other difference between ac and dc current?
Yes, there is. AC = Alternating Current, the direction of the current alternates, thus the name. DC = Direct Current. Things like computers need DC (they use a AC to DC converter inside the power supply to convert it) Hope that helps a bit.
Is power line current ac current?
Yes it is AC. AC means Alternating Current in which the current flows first one way and then flows the other way. The current from a battery is DC, Direct Current, in which the current constantly flows one way only.
What does a step-down transformer do to the electrical current?
A step-down transformer lowers the voltage of an AC current. The higher AC current is put through one side and the other side the lower AC current is delivered.
What current does the television in your living room run on?
AC or Alternating Current. 115 Volts in the U.S. and other parts of the world. 224 Volts in Europe and other countries.
Is home elect ac currant?
DC current is not used in home wiring. It may be used to power a door bell, alarm system, under counter lights, etc, that uses a transformer powered by AC that converts the power to DC. Other than that homes are wired for AC current only.
Does a fan run on a dc current or ac current?
AC
How can you block ac current?
You can block AC current by using a filter with a pass-band that is outside the frequency of the AC current.
What statement descibes the flow of electic current in an AC circuit?
The flow of electric current in an AC circuit is alternating, it flows one way then the other, with reference to ground.
What device converts dc current to ac current?
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
Can you give any practical prove of difference between the ac and dc?
if ac changes direction then how current happen to flow
Did ceiling fan operate on dc or ac current?
ac current
