The cell membrane is selectively permeable to some ions. The differences in the concentrations of specific ions across nerve cell membranes, produces an electrical charge.

What kind current is produced by a dry cell?

A dry cell battery does not use current it produces a current when connected to an electrical load. The type of current that the dry cell produces is DC (direct current).


Does a dry cell battery produce alternating current or direct current?

directA dry cell battery produces DC.


Does a photovoltaic cell produces AC electric current?

The panel itself produces DC and if it is connected to mains electricity it needs a separate converter to change the current to AC.

Does a dry-cell battery produce the same current that a generator produces?

A dry cell produces direct current, which means that the current flows from one terminal of the dry cell to the other in one direction only. The word generator nowadays often means a device that produces alternating current, which is to say current that reverses its direction, usually at a fixed rate called the frequency. For instance, the current available in North American homes is alternating current at 60 cycles per second; it reverses direction 120 times per second. A machine that produces current that resembles what is available from a dry cell is often called a dynamo. These devices are similar to generators but with switches in them to change the alternating current to direct current, in effect. The current they produce is still not quite like that from a dry cell inasmuch as it's not perfectly 'smooth' continuous direct current. There's a ripple of slightly higher and lower current superimposed on the direct current. Please see the link, especially the graph associated with the Gramme dynamo.


What device produces an electric current by converting chemical energy into electrical energy?

How an electric current is produced?

When charges (means charged bodies) move , then we say that an electric current is produced. If charges remain at rest, current is zero. If charge Q moves through a metal in time t , then current I through metal is: I=Q/t; moreever, electric current can also be produced by rate of change of magnetic field through a metal...,
