5 Questions
True or false: Direct current (DC) is a continuous flow of electrons in one direction and it never changes its direction until the power is stopped or switched off.
True
True or false: Alternating current constantly changes its direction because of the way it is generated.
True
True or false: The term 'frequency' is used to indicate how many times the current changes its direction in one second.
True
True or false: Alternating current has a great advantage over direct current because it can be transmitted over very long distances through small wires, by making energy high voltage and low current.
True
True or false: Volts (V) measure the amount of current flowing through a conductor.
False
