6. What is Alternating Current?
Alternating current electricity is the type of electricity
commonly used in homes and business throughout the
world.
AC electricity is created by an AC electric generator
with determine the frequency.
An AC waveform can be sinusoidal , square or
sawtooth shaped. Some AC waveform are irregular or
complicated.
8. GraphicalRepresentation ofACVoltage &Current
If in a circuit the electric current changes its direction after a
definite interval of time with a maximum and minimum value ,
then this current is called alternating current(I).
Consequently ,if in a circuit the electric voltage changes its
direction after a definite interval of time with a maximum and
minimum value , then this current is called alternating voltage(E).
An AC is periodic function of time.
Alternating Voltage(E) & current(I) in a circuit is associated with a
steady state voltage (E0) and current(I0).
These can be written as-
I=I0sinฯt
E=E0sinฯt ;where ฯ is angular velocity & t is time.

Consider, an AC circuit containing a pure
resistance R with a voltage E applied on the
circuit where E=E0sinฯt .

16. What is special about AC electricity is that the voltage can be
readily changed, thus making it more suitable for long-distance
transmission than DC electricity. But also, AC can employ
capacitors and inductors in electronic circuitry, allowing for a wide
range of applications
Alternating current (AC) electricity is the type of electricity
commonly used in homes and businesses throughout the world
The major advantage that AC electricity has over DC electricity is
that AC voltages can be readily transformed to higher or lower
voltage levels, while it is difficult to do that with DC voltages
We commonly use AC electricity to power our television, lights
and computers. In AC electricity, the current alternates in
direction. AC electricity was proven to be better for supplying
electricity than DC, primarily because the voltages can be
transformed. AC also allows for other devices to be used, opening
a wide range of applications.
