Question

What is electricity and types?

Answer 1

1. Electricity can be defined as the flow of electrical charge.
2. Electricity is a form of energy.
3. Electricity flows from high potential to the low potential.
4. The types of electricity are there
   4.1 Static electricity: A body's electric charge imbalance, specifically the imbalance between the positive and negative charges, is referred to as static electricity.
   4.2 Current electricity: The movement of electrons from one point to another in an electric circuit is called current electricity.
   4.2.1 Alternating current: Alternating current can be defined as the electric charge flow changes its direction periodically.
   4.2.2 Direct current: The direct current flows in a single direction in a steady voltage, the flow of direct current does not change periodically.
   4.3 Hydro electricity: Hydroelectricity refers to the generation of electrical power by the use of hydropower. Hydropower here mainly is the gravitational force of falling water.
   4.4 Solar electricity: Solar energy is generated from solar panel or photovoltaic cells by absorbing sunlight.
5. There are basic types of sources used in electricity are Fossil fuels, Renewable energy, Mainly hydroelectric, Nuclear power.
