Difference between AC and DC

In Alternating Current (AC), the electric charges flow changes its direction periodically whereas the flow of current in Direct Current (DC) does not change periodically. Explore the difference between AC and DC given below.

Alternating Current
1. AC can carry and safe to transfer longer distance even between two cities, and maintain the electric power.
2. Electrons in AC keep changing its directions.
3. The rotating magnets cause the change in direction of electric flow.

Direct Current
1. DC cannot travel for very longer distance.
2. Electrons only move in one direction.
3. The steady magnetism makes the DC to flow in a single direction.
