AC voltage is varying because it is sinusoidal in nature
Voltage AC was created on 2004-12-14.

No, you cannot accurately measure the output voltage of an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) using a DC meter, as the AVR typically regulates AC voltage for the generator. A DC meter is designed for measuring direct current voltage, while the voltage output from a generator is usually alternating current (AC). To measure the AC voltage effectively, you would need an AC voltmeter or a multimeter set to the AC voltage setting.
You cant.
With an AC and a DC voltage source in series, the DC voltage can be added to the RMS value of the AC voltage to give the effective voltage.
Batteries are storing charge or free electrons. The state is by nature a fixed voltage rather than a varying voltage. You can convert the battery charge to AC by using what is called an inverter.
Not usually. Transformers require a varying magnetic field, which is induced by AC voltage.
A modern power grid consists of many voltages and currents, all being interconnected by transformers, which trade off voltage and current. A typical power generator usually generates electricity at a few thousand volts AC, which is then stepped up to around 120kv for distribution, then stepped down to around 30kv, for secondary distribution, then finally down to 240v/120v for domestic use. Engineers typically measure the voltage of AC circuits using "RMS voltages" (Root Mean Squared voltages) This convention is used because of the varying nature of AC, and relates the varying AC voltage to an effective DC voltage. RMS Voltage for typical AC =Peak voltage / Square root(2) which is approximately equal to peak voltage* 70%

How do you convert 23 voltage DC to 230 Voltage AC?

The frequency is changed by varying its speed, and the the voltage is changed by varying its field current.
Most of the printers offered in the USA have a voltage of 110V AC input and 8V AC output, whereas the printers offered in the Europe have input voltage of 220V AC and output voltage of 8V AC.
The function of any transformer is to change one AC voltage value to another AC voltage value. A step down transformer will transform a higher AC voltage to a lower AC voltage. A step up transformer will transform a lower AC voltage to a higher AC voltage. The transmission of electrical power uses both of these types of transformers. From the generation station the voltage is stepped up to a very high transmission voltage and at the end of the transmission line it is stepped down to a voltage that consumers can utilize.
For part of the AC voltage wave, the capacitor will be above the source voltage, and will discharge until the AC voltage wave increases above the capacitor's stored voltage.

The reason an AC voltage applied across a load resistance produces alternating current is because when you have AC voltage you have to have AC current. If DC voltage is applied, DC current is produced.
