What is the difference between rectified ac and dc?
Dc or direct current is and electrical current flowing in only one direction. Examples would be batteries or solar cells. ac or alternating current is current flowing or "alternating" in more than one direction. An example is the outlet you plug a cord into to power devices or appliances in your home or businesses. rectification of these is simply the conversion of one to the other, because sometimes the device your trying to power needs one type of current and the only available type current is the other. So in essence you have to convert or "rectify" one power source into one usable for your purposes. An example of this is a laptop. A laptop or any other type of mobile computer uses a battery for power, which is direct current. In order to keep your laptop battery charged you must plug in the ac adapter in a wall socket near by. The problem is your laptop uses direct current and what you are about plug your adapter into to power or charge your mobile computer is going to be alternating current. The two are not interchangeable. The solution lies with the actual ac adapter itself. If you'll notice there is a small to medium size box in the middle of the cord. The box is designed to convert, or "rectify" the type of current going from the wall to your mobile computer from ac to dc power.
