    electric current it is known as direct current (DC). The other one is known as alternating current (AC). However‚ an electric current can be produce by moving a magnet inside a coil‚ wire‚ so the size of this induces current and it is able to increase by moving the magnet faster. This is using a stronger magnet‚ so increasing the number of the turns‚ coils. It may be able to increase its area but the dynamo is a type of electricity generator. Direct current If you flow the current in only

    25017 1 March 2013 Tesla vs. Edison Everyone knows who Thomas Edison is‚ and many attribute the “invention of electricity” to Edison‚ but this is simply not accurate. The truth is‚ while Thomas Edison did patent and market DC‚ or direct current‚ electricity‚ he did not “invent” electricity‚ and as a matter of fact‚ much of his work was actually basically stolen from other scientists‚ among them‚ one brilliant scientist‚ Nikola Tesla. We are all taught about Edison in school‚ but never once

    average resistance from 10 voltage and current measurements‚ and find the graphical resistance using a trend line. The results show that the average resistance calculated from 10 voltage and current readings and the graphical resistance were closest to the measured resistance‚ while the color coding resistance was furthest off. Introduction: Georg Simon Ohm established that current (I) in a wire is proportional to the voltage (V) applied to its ends. How much current flows in the wire depends on the
