How do you store direct current?

Answer 1

DC can be produced in a battery via a chemical reaction. Also solar panels can produce DC directly. If you have Alternating Current (AC) you can convert to DC using a full wave bridge and filtering output.

Answer 2

Difference between AC and DC electricity

Electrons have negative (−) electrical charges. Since opposite charges attract, they will move toward an area consisting of positive (+) charges. This movement is made easier in an electrical conductor, such as a metal wire.

Electrons move direct with DC electricity

With DC electricity, connecting a wire from the negative (−) terminal of a battery to the positive (+) terminal will cause the negative charged electrons to rush through the wire toward the positive charged side. The same thing happens with a DC generator, where the motion of coiled wire through a magnetic field pushes electrons out of one terminal and attracts electrons to the other terminal.

Answer 3

Electric current is the flow of charge, in coulombs per second past a point in a circuit. The ampere is defined as one coulomb (6.241 x 1018 electrons) per second, and it is also defined as the current required to produce a force of 2 x 10-7 newtons per meter of length of two straight, parallel conductors of infinite length, with negligible circular cross section, spaced one meter apart in a vacuum.

Answer 4

In a capacitor or chemically in a battery.

Answer 5

Directly from DC sources such as batteries, cells, solar cells etc - or by rectifying AC (Alternating Current). See diode bridge.

Answer 6

Direct current is simply current that flows in only one direction.
