Is the continuous flow of charge in a circuit called direct current?
Direct Current
Which current flows in one direction only?
Direct current (DC) this is produced by for example batteries. AC alternating current changes direction on a cyclical basis and is used in power distribution and what "comes out" of the power sockets in the home.
Does a flashlight use a direct current of electricity?
Yes, all batteries provide direct current.
What current that does not reverse its direction of flow?
direct current
Why direct current cannot be used for domestic use?
Alternating current can be sent via cables much much farther than direct current.
What is the difference between direct and indirect measurement?
Direct is an exact measurement and indirect is an estimate.
Can instrument transformers be used to extend the range of a moving coil voltmeter?
Not directly, as MC instruments are direct-current instruments, whereas instrument transformers only work on a.c.
What measurements will each of these instruments take?
There is no instrument on that list that can take any reliable measurements.
what are the advantage of current transformer?
These are used with low range ammeters to measure current in HVAC 's where direct connection of instruments is impratical. They not only insulate the instruments from HV lines but also step down current in a known ratio. ( i .e . ) Iline =(I1 \I2) * Ammeter Reading where Iline = Line Current I1 \I2 = Current Ratio
How precise are measurements to instruments?
They depend on the design of the instrument.
Why do the puerto ricans use instruments?
The same reason everyone else uses instruments, for music or for testing and measurements, depending on what type of instruments you are talking about.
How are metric measurements made?
They are made using appropriate tools or instruments.
Will a battery supply direct current or alternating current or ac?
direct current.
How many types of direct current and what is the frequency of direct current?
There is only one type of direct current and its 'frequency' is zero.
Which would make more shock the alternating current or direct current?
direct current
Is your house alternating or direct current?
Alternating current. Direct current is used in batteries.
What two instruments most important for the measurements of a regions climate?
A thermometer and a barometer
