What does AC and DC stand for in the electrical field?
Alternating Current and Direct Current. Electricity is voltage and current. Voltage is electrical pressure, and current is the flow of charged particles. The difference between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) is that the electrons in an AC circuit regularly reverse their direction. In a DC circuit electrons always flow in the same direction.
What must be applied for electrons to move in the same direction?
electromotive force...
Do compressions and rarefactions decompressions in a sound wave travel in the same direction or in opposite directions from one another?
Rarefactions decompressions travel in the same direction, because sound are longitudinal waves.
What are longitudeinal waves?
Longitudinal waves are waves that have the same direction of oscillations or vibrations along or parallel to their direction of travel, which means that the oscillations of the medium (particle) is in the same direction or opposite direction as the motion of the wave.
What is the difference between parallel from circuit?
Parallel means 2 straight lines that never meet. You can continue drawing the lines forever and they do not cross. They can travel in any direction but they most be travelling the exact same way and have the same distance between them no matter what. A circuit, however is 1 closed line (similar to a circle) that has no beginning or end. It can be in any shape but it must be closed.
If electrons in a DC circuit travel from the negative to positive ends of a conductor do the electrons in an AC circuit simply vibrate back and forth and never reach either end?
Yes that's right The same as exhaling and inhaling through a straw

What refers to electric current when electrons always flow in the same direction in the wire?
When electrons always flow in the same direction in the wire it is known a DC (direct current).
When you increase current in a circuit do you have more electrons flowing or are the electrons going faster?
Look at is from a waterfall point of view. If there is more current, is the water flowing faster or is there more water? (If you do not catch on, there is more water and for your question, more electrons.) Electroncs cannot travel faster, they travel at the same speed, and they reach destination faster or slower depending on resistance.
How does the arrangement of electrons in a magnet compare to metals that are not metallic?
electrons in magnets are organized and generally pointing in the same direction
What direction does Mars travel?
It travels around the sun in the same direction as the other planets. This is considered the "positive" direction.
How deos electrcity travel?
Electricity travels through a circuit... The circuit conisists of many conductors and compartments (The conductors are usually magnetic or carbon...). If you turn your circuit on, The Battery will start releasing electricity through the circuit... It really depends which way you have your diodes (If u have any in ur circuit) because there is Autonated Current and Direct Current.

Why isn't phosphorus magnetic?
The outer electrons do not spin in all the same direction-
Do compressions and rarefactions decompressions in a sound wave travel in the same direction or in opposite directions from one another?
Rarefactions decompressions travel in the same direction, because sound are longitudinal waves.
What matter vibrates in the same direction as these waves travel?
Compressional waves
