Alternating Current can be transmitted efficiently at high voltagesbut low currents, for a given power, since at its simplest, Power in Watts = Current X Volts. This minimises heating losses (proportional to resistance-squared) in the cables.
Alternating-current Voltage is also easily stepped up or down by a transformer, not possible with D.C.
Yes, by using a dynamo (which produces d.c.) instead of an alternator.
It can be operated using both AC or DC
we can convert a dc supply to an ac supply using inverters. Its a common operation which we observe in our daily lives dc can be converted to Ac using an undulator.
The main reason for using ac is safety. ac as more safe than the dc as it passes through zero in every half cycle. There are many other reasons like, ac can be transmitted for longer distances efficiently we can use the Induction motor.
An AC-DC converter you can operate a device on AC instead of batteries. ~bobbyjack~ : D
By using rectification we can convert the AC into DC....
AC is easier and cheaper to send from the generators to the consumers than DC is.
Televisions in buses can be either AC or DC current. It depends on whether the bus is using a DC to AC power convertor or an AC generator or DC power from the battery.
DC is used for extra-high voltage transmission systems, as there are less losses with DC than with AC, and no synchronising problems.
Yes, the theorem still applies for AC.
You can not change AC into DC using a transformer. A transformer changes the voltage levels. To change AC into DC, you would need a rectifier. To change that into smooth DC you need a capaciter and a voltage regulater
