MCQ
In alternating current.
  • A
    The direction of current is always positive
  • B
    The direction of current is always negative
  • C
    The direction of current changes constantly
  • D
    The direction of current is either positive or negative

Answer

  1. The direction of current changes constantly

Explanation:

Electric charge in alternating current (AC) changes direction periodically. The voltage in AC circuits also periodically reverses because the current changes direction.
