AC bulbs are designed to be used with alternating current, which constantly changes direction. DC bulbs are designed to be used with direct current, which flows in only one direction. Therefore, the internal workings and design of AC and DC bulbs are different.
The AC Hall effect is used to measure the sign and magnitude of an alternating magnetic field, whereas the DC Hall effect is used to measure the sign and magnitude of a steady magnetic field. In AC Hall effect, the magnetic field changes direction periodically, while in DC Hall effect, the magnetic field is constant.
A bulb powered by AC supply generally provides more illumination than the same bulb powered by DC supply. This is because the higher voltage of AC supply allows more current to flow through the bulb, resulting in increased brightness.
AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) differ in the direction of flow and voltage fluctuation. AC changes direction periodically, while DC flows in one direction. AC is more efficient for long-distance transmission due to lower energy loss, but DC is better for certain devices like electronics. The choice between AC and DC depends on the specific application and efficiency requirements of the electrical system.
Alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) differ in the direction of flow of electric charge. AC changes direction periodically, while DC flows in one direction continuously. AC is used for long-distance power transmission, while DC is used for electronic devices and batteries.
Alternating Current and Direct Current. Electricity is voltage and current. Voltage is electrical pressure, and current is the flow of charged particles. The difference between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) is that the electrons in an AC circuit regularly reverse their direction. In a DC circuit electrons always flow in the same direction.
