Answer 1

Direct current:

1. The unidirectional flow of an electric charge is referred to as direct current. Current flows in one direction only
2. Direct current can flow through conductors like wires, but it can also flow through semiconductors and even a vacuum.
3. Electric current differs from alternating current in that it flows in a constant direction.
4. Some examples of DC current are the mobile battery providing DC power, the laptop battery providing DC power, solar panels generating direct current (DC), and Power banks providing DC power.
