What is the procedure of storing the ac current?

AC current cannot be stored, it must be used as it is generated.

Can you generate direct current?

Direct current can be generated by a generator. Generators are not as efficient as alternators ( that generated AC power ). Vehicles use direct current but come equipped with alternators. The AC power is rectified ( changed to DC ) for use.


How is alternating current (AC) generated?

Alternating current (AC) is generated by rotating a coil of wire within a magnetic field, which induces an alternating voltage in the coil. This process is known as electromagnetic induction and is the principle behind how AC electricity is produced in power plants.


What type of current is generated by the local electrical system?

The electrical grid distributes alternating current(AC).


Can solar energy be used to power AC electric motor?

Yes, but the DC current generated needs to be turned into AC first.


Is electricity generated by rotating magnets around copper coils AC or DC?

It is AC, alternating current. To create DC the generated power needs to go through a full wave rectifier.


What is generated when a permanent magnet is moved in front of a coiled wire and the magnet's magnetic field pushes and pulls electrons in the coiled wire?

an AC, or alternating current


What condition will sinusoidal voltage be generated in a coil of wire that rotates in a magnetic field?

a generator or alternator,if the magnetic is permanent the current produced from the coil will be alternating current ac.


What does a bridge rectifier do in a ac generator?

A bridge rectifier converts alternating current (AC) generated by an AC generator into direct current (DC). It does this using four diodes arranged in a bridge configuration, allowing current to flow through the load in one direction regardless of the AC input's polarity. This process effectively smooths out the AC waveform, providing a more stable and usable DC output for various applications.

Why moving iron or hot wire type meters can be used for measuring both ac and dc quantities?

yes we can measure the ac and dc because current passes through certain resistance then heat generate. heat is square of current. so chang in direction of current does not effect on heat generated.
