Answer / electrokarz

* AC can be stepped-up or stepped down efficiently using
transformers where as DC cannot be stepped up or down
efficiently ( the losses in DC-DC buck/boost choppers are
quite high)

* Skin effect is observed in AC transmission systems but not
in DC.

* The need of brushes and commutators makes DC generators
expensive and needs regular maintenance where as AC machines
(generators and motors) are cheap and needs less or no
maintenance.

* Synchronization with system frequency is needed in AC systems.

Answer / sree ranga prasad

AC(ALTERNATIVE CURRENT)
-IN AC MAGNITUDE IS VARYING
-AC HAVING FINUTE TIME PERIOD
-AC TERMINALS REPRSENTED BY PHASE AND NEWTRAL
-IN AC SINGLE PHASE AND THREE PHASE AVALIBLE
-IT HAS SOME FREQENCY

DC(DIRECT CURRENT)
-IN DC MAGNITUDE IS CONSTANT
-HERE TIME PERIOD IS INFINITY
-HERE FREQENCY IS ZERO
-TERMINALS ARE REPRSENTED BY +,-

Answer / ajit yadav

ac is alternate current in this the signal is continuous
with time in any frequency range
a complete cycle is a frequency means positive and negative
cycle
