What current flows in one direction then the opposite direction?
AC, Alternating Current.
What is meant by alternative current?
Alternating current is more efficinent. It is wireless and more efficient than direct current. And it is safer. Plus Tesla is better than Edison
What is the role of split rings in electric motors?
Split rings keep the current flowing in the same direction or the motor turning in the same direction when using alternating current which reverses direction in its cycle..
What is direct and alternating voltage?
An alternating current (AC) is an electric current whose direction reverses cyclically, as opposed to direct current, whose direction remains constant. The usual waveform of an AC power circuit is a sine wave, as this results in the most efficient transmission of energy.
Current in which electrons flow in the same direction is called?
It's alternating current
Electric current changes direction repeatedly is called?
AC current (alternating current) like in a wall outlet
What describes the flow of electric current in an AC circuit?
alternating curet
What is an alternating circuit?
an electric current that changes it direction or strength repeatedly
What type of electric current changes direction?
AC current (alternating current) like in a wall outlet
What is an electric current that periodically changes direction?
There are two types of electric current, DC or direct current and AC or alternating current. The power delivery to homes in most places in the world is AC or alternating current. This is where the electrons are pushed one way then back the other way with usually 100 or 120 changes in direction per second. This produces 50 or 60 forward/back cycles every second called 50Hz or 60Hz.
Define alternating current definition?
The alternating current refers to the flow of the electric charge periodically and in the opposite direction. The polarity changes with the time..
What is electric current in which current flows first in one direction and then another?
Alternating Current could fit this description in this question.
What is AC current?
An AC current (alternating current) is one that changes its direction continuously - typically at 50 or 60 Hertz (cycles per second).
What current flows in one direction then the opposite direction?
AC, Alternating Current.
What are the differences between AC power and DC power?
The description AC/DC refers to equipment designed to be operate on either alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC). In alternating current the movement of electric charge periodically reverses direction. In direct current , the flow of electric charge is only in one direction.
What is current that keeps changing direction?
AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.
What is meant by alternative current?
Alternating current is more efficinent. It is wireless and more efficient than direct current. And it is safer. Plus Tesla is better than Edison
