What is the direction of flow of electric current in an electric current?
DC current
Is DC what the role of freqency?
Direct current (DC) never changes its direction of flow, so it has no frequency.
What is a current consisting of charges that flow only in one direction called?
A Direct Current or DC direct current is a current consisting of charges that flow only in one direction.
How does a DC current flow in a wire?
The electrons drift predominantly in one direction.
When flow can reverse its direction regularly it is called?
Alternating Current (AC) reverses its flow constantly, unlike DC (constant current) which flows in one direction only.
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).
How do diods convert AC electricity to DC electricity?
by blocking current flow in one direction
How do diodes converts ac electricity to dc electricity?
by blocking current flow in one direction
Can you install a diode to allow 24 volts AC to flow in one direction but not allow the flow of 24 volts AC to flow in the opposite direction?
Diodes convert AC into DC by allowing current flow in one direction only. Since AC is alternating between plus and minus it is not possible to use a diode to allow AC to flow in one direction and not in the other direction.
What happened to electron under ac voltage and dc voltage?
when electrons flow under AC they flow in both direction firstly forward then in reverse and it does this for as long as there is a potential difference applied to the circuit. under DC the current only flows in one direction only
What type of current involves charge flow i n a single direction?
That is called "DC" or "direct current".
What is the difference between DC and AC?
The primary difference between DC and AC is the direction of current flow. In a DC circuit, all electron current flow is in one direction. In an AC circuit, current flows in one direction for part of the time, and in another direction for another part of the time. In the AC circuit, we'll see current flowing "back and forth" instead of the unidirectional current flow we find in a DC circuit.DC is "Direct Current", and AC is "Alternating Current". In DC, the current flow is in one direction only. In AC, the current flow is constantly changing direction.An example of DC is the output of a battery. An example of AC is the power present in a home electrical system.The current whose magnitude and direction remains change called as alternating current.The current whose magnitude and direction remain unchanged called as d.c. Current.
