"Current" cannot be stored at all in any way; when you stop it moving, it isn't current any more and moving it means using it. The energy carried however, can be stored in several different ways.

Is it possible to store a alternating current?
An AC current can not be stored.
Why alternating current cannot be stored in battery?
b'coz ac changes continiously with time
What is current that keeps changing direction?
AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.AC, or alternating current.
What is alternating current machine?
"What is alternating current machine?"
What is a graphical representation of alternating current?
The symbol for alternating current is: ~
What is Alternating current is measured in?
Alternating Current is measured in Amperes.
Why dc can be stored ac cannot stored?
Why direct current (DC) can be stored but alternating current(AC) can not be? Current means flow of charge per unit second. Any flow cannot be made stationary. Then it is not flow. Hence both direct current and alternating current cannot be stored. We can store only charges. In capacitors we store charges and not current. For storing we use direct supply or direct voltage When a capacitor is connected to a battery, which is a source of direct voltage, each plate of the condenser get charged. Charges remain in the plates. No current flows in between the plates. When the source is removed, there are some charges left in the plates. We say that charges are stored in the plates. If an alternating source of supply is connected in between the plates,every instant ,the charges in the plates are alternating and they are not stationary. When ac supply is removed, all the charges move out of the plates and hence no charge is left in them. Hence charges can be stored with dc supply and not with ac supply. However as long as the ac is connected to the capacitor, the capacitor gets stored and emptied with the frequency of the ac supply.
What is alternating current normally produced by?
Alternating current is normally produced by rotating the magnet in the coil of an induced alternating voltage. When connected to a circuit, an alternating current will flow.
Is your house alternating or direct current?
Alternating current. Direct current is used in batteries.
Which is better for transmission alternating current and direct current?
Alternating current is better than direct current for transmission.
What is a sentence with the word alternating current in it?
Nicola Tesla is the father of alternating current.
Alternating current is produced by battery or generators?
A generator produces alternating current.
