difference between ac motor and dc motor

Answer Posted / harish kumar.g

The Difference Between AC and DC Electric Motors
[Automotive] There are two main types of electric motors.
There are direct current or DC and alternating current or
AC motors. The reference of DC or AC refers to how the
electrical current is transferred through and from the
motor. Both types of motors have different functions and
uses. Dc motors come in two general types. They can have
brushes or be brushless. AC motors, as well, come in two
different types. They can be two phase or three phase. The
differences in DC and AC motors are sometimes subtle, but
these differences are what make one types better for a
certain use.
