How many volts does a over head light use?

The domestic main line voltage varies from country to country.


How do light a light bulb with a balloon?

If it is just you, the light bulb and the balloon....no. That is just static electricity and is very low voltage and ampheres. If that light bulb is plugged in to a lamp that is plugged into a socket, very possibly yes. That static electricity could be greatly magnified by stray voltage and cause you some serious grief.

What is the principal advantage of ac power over dc power?

The only advantage I can think of off the top of my head would be a reduction of noise and a reduction of danger. DC will not interfere with wireless devices or create that annoying hum in sound devices and is far less lethal than AC current.Disadvantages: You will take a major loss in power when converting AC to DC, and a further hit to convert it back to AC. DC current also will not travel as far as AC current over long distances.Another answerDC does not experience 'skin effect' that is inherent in AC (in AC, the current runs predominantly on the outside - or 'skin' - of the wire and not in the interior), meaning that for the same sized wire and same voltage, DC loses less energy per distance than AC does.DC does not experience the electromagnetic inductance losses (or cause the electromagnetic interference) that AC power does since the voltage does not change over time. These losses can be minimized in AC by minimizing the frequency, but never completely eliminated.Given the same high tension power line setup, and even disregarding skin effect, DC can be run at higher voltage due to having steady voltage instead of a peak voltage that is ~1.4 times higher than the RMS voltage, as is the case with AC. For example, 500,000VAC (RMS) actually has a peak value of over 700,000volts.For more information please view both the Related Linkand the answer to the Related Question shown below.
