What is the difference between elecrical and electronics?
in electronics we use DC current but in elctrical equipment we use AC current
Does Europe use AC or DC current for electricity?
Europe mostly uses 220 to 240 volts AC current at 50 Hz.
Why use AC to measure ionic conductance and why not dc current?
in order to avoid electrolysis
Do strobe lights use ac or dc current to flash?
Strobe lights use ac or alternating current to flash. The frequency of 50 Hz is alternating current's frequency, coming in handy for its flashing.
Are diodes only used in a dc circuit?
There are lots of diodes - a "diode" is simply a device that has two electrical connections.If you refer specifically to the rectifying diode, it is used to convert AC current to DC current - so, it is used in a circuit that has BOTH AC and DC.
Why do you still use both ac and DC?
Because some appliances work with ac current and some with dc current.
Does a car use DC or AC power?
the car use dc current dear
What device converts dc current to ac current?
A "Rectifier" converts AC current to pulsating DC current.
What is the sign for ac and DC current?
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
What is the difference between ac and dc grounding?
The difference AC and DC grounding is that AC is alternate current and DC is direct current. Grounding for both AC and DC is the same.
Is their any other difference between ac and dc current?
Yes, there is. AC = Alternating Current, the direction of the current alternates, thus the name. DC = Direct Current. Things like computers need DC (they use a AC to DC converter inside the power supply to convert it) Hope that helps a bit.
Which type of current does a dc motor use?
dc stands for direct current. This can be obtained from a battery or a rectified ac (alternating current ) supply.
Does implantable defibrillator use ac or dc current?
DC, unless you run an extension cord.
What are the two kinds electricity?
Perhaps you are referring to DC and AC? DC is direct current - current flows in a single direction. In AC (alternating current), the current regularly changes its direction.Perhaps you are referring to DC and AC? DC is direct current - current flows in a single direction.

Does a fan run on a dc current or ac current?
AC
Which is the device that converts AC to DC?
A Rectifier converts Alternating current into Direct current
What is DC-AC?
AC/DC is a rock band. Their name refers to "alternating current direct current.
