Reversing the equation gives the oxidation half reaction. Doing this changes the sign on the voltage, not the magnitude.
Batteries produce DC because the potential difference is determined by the chemical reaction inside the battery. This voltage is constant.
For emample, if you are dealing with Copper and Zinc, you first take the half equations Cu2+ + 2e- --> Cu +0.34 Zn2+ + 2e- ---> Zn -0.76 then, you decide which one is reduced and which one is oxidized, the one with the more positive voltage is reduced, so in this case the copper is reduced. the overall reaction changes to Zn- ---> Zn2+ + 2e +0.76 Cu2+ + 2e- --> Cu +0.34 ---- Zn + Ni2+ ---> Ni + Zn2+ + 0.5 you add the voltages and get 0.5 as an experimental voltage

The overall voltage for a redox reaction with the half reactions Mg s -- Mg2 plus plus 2e- and Cu2 plus -- Cu is 76 V.
