The flow of electric current in an AC circuit is alternating, it flows one way then the other, with reference to ground.

What does a battery use to produce electricity?

a battery has potential ( voltage). without a circuit atatched to it nothing happens. But when used in an electic ciruit, like with a light bulb, current will flow(amps). current flow is what causes your light bulb to light. A battery has the pressure (voltage) so to speak to cause current flow. Generally, current flows from negative to positive ina complete circuit.


Can an electic charge be removed from a proton or electron?

No. Charge must always be conserved.


Can you take electic shaver on a plane?

Yes, you can usually take an electric shaver on a plane in your carry-on luggage. However, it's always a good idea to check with the airline for any specific rules or restrictions they may have.


What happen when time was not included in system of base units?

no, but i sure as can imagine a system of base units in which "amount of substance", "thermodynamic temperature", and "luminous intensity" are not included (they can be derived from the base units) and one where electic charge replaces electric current as a base unit.


Who inventored electic bulb?

The invention of the electric bulb is primarily attributed to Thomas Edison, who developed the first practical and commercially viable incandescent light bulb in 1879. However, it is important to note that several inventors, including Sir Humphry Davy, Joseph Swan, and Hiram Maxim, made significant contributions to the development of electric lighting prior to Edison's work. Edison's improvements, particularly in the filament and electrical system, made widespread use of electric bulbs possible.

What are the main parts of a electic circuit rsfgrsdfAWSXfdvenjkfn?

The main parts of an electric circuit include a power source (such as a battery or generator), conductive paths (wires) that connect the components, and load devices (like resistors, bulbs, or motors) that use electricity. Additionally, circuits may incorporate switches to control the flow of electricity and protective devices like fuses or circuit breakers to prevent overloads. Together, these components enable the flow of electric current to perform work.
