An alternator.

AC is alternating current like in your house. DC is direct current like in your car.
Angus and Malcolm Young saw the name AC/DC on the back of their sister's sewing machine and thought it would be a good name for the band because of its high energy type of music.
Ac/dc was thought up by Angus and Melcome when they looked on their sister's new sewing machine box and saw AC for alternating current and DC for Direct Current AC/DC stands for the current of electricity and Bon Scott (the group 1st singer) thought it sounded good
The band AC/DC stands for "Alternating Current/Direct Current." The name was chosen to represent the high-energy and electrifying sound of their music. The band's founding members, Malcolm and Angus Young, were inspired by the initials they saw on a sewing machine.
Another name for DC current is direct current. It refers to the flow of electric charge in a single direction, as opposed to alternating current (AC), where the flow of charge periodically reverses direction. DC current is commonly used in batteries and electronic devices.

AC/DC is a rock band. Their name refers to "alternating current direct current.
The current you are referring to is called an alternating current (AC). It changes direction periodically to allow for efficient transfer of electricity in power distribution systems.
AC is alternating current like in your house. DC is direct current like in your car.
Its Alternate Current and Direct Current. I believe Angus Young got the idea for the band name when he say AC/DC on the bottom of his sisters sewing kit. Electric current can be direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC). Direct current such as the power from dry cells is characterized by a uniform direction of flow and amount (voltage) of electricity.

Another name for thermohaline current is "conveyor belt," which some call this current of the ocean.
HZ. Hertz is the name given to the frequency of the alternating circuit. Direct current (DC) has no frequency since one wire is always positive and the other is always negative; but AC (Alternating Current) rapidly changes polarity, and does so at a rate that is defined by HZ.
A device that permits direct current (DC) and opposes the flow of alternating current (AC) is a rectifier. Rectifiers are electronic components that only allow current to flow in one direction, which is common for converting AC to DC in power supplies and other applications.
