Solution

Differences between AC and DC are given below:
AC
DC
1.The current's direction reverses on a regular basis. The current's direction remains unchanged.
2.Rotating a coil in a uniform magnetic field or rotating a stationary coil in a uniform magnetic field. Magnetic field that is constant across the wire.
3.It is represented by irregular waves such as triangular, square, square tooth, and sine waves. Their load is typically resistive.
4.
