How is alternative current prodused in a battery?
A battery by itself will only supply DC output. You would need a method to convert DC to AC, such as an inverter, in simplified terms: an electronic circuit which has an oscillator to create the desired frequency then amplifies it to the desired magnitude output. Another way, which I don't know if used anymore, is a motor-generator set. A DC motor's shaft is connected to an AC generator's shaft, and the output is taken from the AC generator.
Is a 9 volt battery ac or DC?
A 9 volt battery is a DC (direct current) power source. It provides a constant voltage output in one direction, unlike AC (alternating current) which flows back and forth.
Does ac dc mean it can run on battery or plug into wall?
AC - Alternating Current, same thing that comes out of a wall socket DC - Direct Current, batteries. <<>> When a device has AC/DC on its name plate, it can work off either of the two voltages. Many portable radios have this function. When the radio is plugged into AC, the voltage is transformed to the working DC voltage and then rectified to a DC voltage. When the radio is on battery operation, the radio operated strictly from the DC voltage supplied by the batteries. The change between voltages from AC to DC or DC to AC is almost instantaneously. This change over is done through an AC powered relay in the radio. When the AC held in relay looses its supply it de energizes and switches over to DC power if the batteries are in the radio. With batteries in the radio try it. Plug into the AC supply, turn on the radio that has batteries installed in it, unplug the AC supply and the radio will not miss a beat.
Is a AC adapter the same as a charger?
An ac adapter converts ac current into dc current through a rectifier, and a battery charger outputs dc current at an adjustable powerful charging rate and also converts ac current to dc current to charge different sizes of batteries.
Current in cars ac or DC?
The Current in a automobile is DC, you have a battery which is dc, and your alternator produces ac current but converts it to DC inside the alternator unit which gives your battery DC power. So basically everything in your car is DC.
Is Battery is DC or AC?
An alkaline battery's output is DC as is any battery.
Is battery ac or DC?
Batteries are DC
Why DC is used in battery's?
dc in battery stands for direct current .ac is alternating current.
When measuring electrical components how can you tell if it will be AC or DC?
Typically DC is what you get in a battery and AC is what powers your house.
Is a battery consider AC power?
No. A battery is considered to be DC power.
Are TV's in buses AC or DC input?
Televisions in buses can be either AC or DC current. It depends on whether the bus is using a DC to AC power convertor or an AC generator or DC power from the battery.
Will a 120 volt AC to 12 volt AC adapter charge a 12 volt car battery?
No, the battery is DC not AC.
Do laptop work on ac or DC and how?
A laptop runs on DC. Either from the battery, or the external power supply, which converts AC power to DC.
What does AC-DC conversion and battery charging mean?
The voltage in your house is AC. It is in the form of a sine wave that goes positive and negative 60 times a second. To charge a battery you need DC so you do an AC to DC conversion and then apply the DC to the battery charging circuit that applies the correct charging current to the battery and checks on the state of the charge.
Can you run 0.5hp ac water pump with car battery?
No, the pump runs on AC current the battery supplies DC current. Yes, but you will need an inverter to turn the DC current into AC current
Is a car battery AC or DC volts?
dc - the voltage is a constant 12 volts nominally in a normal car battery.
Is a car battery ac or DC?
Car electrical systems are DC, direct current.
