For some equipment it doesn't matter, other types of equipment will be destroyed.
For a simple electric heater or an incandescent bulb AC or DC are acceptable, provided the rms voltage of the AC is equal to the DC voltage. If the heater has a time switch, DC is unacceptable.
A DC motor may or may not work with AC depending on its type and size. The commutator motor as used in vacuum cleaners is essentially a DC motor, but most types of AC motor are not interchangeable to DC.
Electronic circuits usually required a DC supply and if AC is applied many of the components will be destroyed.

How do you use a resistor to lower ac voltage?
ummmmm... put it in series.
Is the power line voltage available in your homes a DC or an AC voltage?
We deliver power on the power grid as an AC voltage. That's alternating current, and that's what is available in your home.
When was Voltage AC created?
Voltage AC was created on 2004-12-14.
Why ac voltage varying?
AC voltage is varying because it is sinusoidal in nature
Where would DC be used instead of AC?
DC is used for extra-high voltage transmission systems, as there are less losses with DC than with AC, and no synchronising problems.
Is the RMS value of the power output of a device running on a certain AC voltage equivalent to the power output of a similar device if it was running on the same voltage but it was DC instead of AC?
Yes.
Why we used ac volt in supply line instead of dc volt?
AC voltage is more sufficient than DC voltage. Moreover, an AC transformer can be developed but DC voltage will make it harder. Without a transformer, we cannot turn the high and low voltaged into each-other.
What will happen if you use your old AC charger for an inspiron 1505 on your newer inspiron 1520 The plugs match and the voltage is the same.?
The charger will most likely work.
What is ac welding?
AC welders use electric voltage directly from an alternating current outlet.
How do you use a resistor to lower ac voltage?
ummmmm... put it in series.
Ac Adapter is it ok to use higher voltage?
On both the primary side and the secondary side the answer is no. It's OK if the voltage is within 10% of your original AC Adapter.
ABS sensor produce AC voltage or DC voltage?
AC !
Is the power line voltage available in your homes a DC or an AC voltage?
We deliver power on the power grid as an AC voltage. That's alternating current, and that's what is available in your home.
How do you increase voltage 5v-12v?
AC or DC? AC - use a transformer, DC - forget it - not simple or cheap.
What is the voltage adapter for use in European countries?
Step down transformer from 220 volts AC to 110volts AC
How do you increase voltage 5v 12v?
AC or DC? AC - use a transformer, DC - forget it - not simple or cheap.
How do you convert 23 voltage DC to 230 Voltage AC?
How do you convert 23 voltage DC to 230 Voltage AC?
