Is car electricity DC power?
Yes. The alternator outputs AC which is converted to DC which all electrical components run on.
Is electricity AC Or DC currant which one?
Electricity or rather electric currant can be either AC or DC. AC means alternating current (as in that electricity that is supplied by the mains) and DC means direct current (as in that electricity supplied by a battery)..
Does Europe use AC or DC current for electricity?
Europe mostly uses 220 to 240 volts AC current at 50 Hz.
What electric motor does an electric car use?
A electric car uses either a DC or AC motor. Typically they use DC motors.
Which choice defines AC and DC correctly?
Choice of electricity defines ac and dc
What is the difference between an ac drive and a dc drive?
The differenece is in the type of current it uses. AC is usually what is used in the home and DC from something like the car battery.
What doaes ac DC stand for?
The two forms of Electricity are AC and DC. AC Stands for Alernating Current and DC stands for Direct Current. AC electricity comes out of the Powerpoint that your computer is probably using and DC electricity is used in 5.1 voltage batteries that probably power your flashlight or toy.
What is AC motor and DC motor?
AC stands for alternating current, and DC is direct current. A motor is a device that uses electrical energy to spin. An AC motor uses AC voltage, and a DC motor uses DC voltage. http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Difference-Between-AC-and-DC-Electric-Motors&id=193767
Is car power AC or DC?
DC
What is the basic difference between ac and dc?
AC electricity (Alternating Current) flows in both directions along the wire at a certain frequnecy eg 50 or 60HZ (eg the wall outlet is AC) DC electricity (Direct Current) flows along the wire in one direction only, from positive to negative (eg you car battery is DC)
Is the electricity from batteries AC or DC?
Direct current
How many people still use DC electricity?
If you are talking about DC power line electricity, it is no longer used in homes or industry however many electric rail systems (e.g. trolley, highspeed trains) use DC electricity as DC motors have several advantages for motive power compared to AC motors. A few very long transmission power lines use DC electricity, but the DC is converted back to AC electricity before being distributed to customers. Certain industries (e.g. electroplating, aluminum refining) use DC internally, but they use large rectifiers to convert 3-phase AC to DC electricity when it enters the plant.If you are talking about electronic equipment (e.g. radios, computers, cell phones) these usually contain batteries. Everyone using battery powered electronics (or lighting, toys, cars, UPSs, etc.) uses DC electricity, because that is the way batteries provide electricity.Nearly everyone uses DC electricity, in battery powered devices.
