AC is used to refer to an electric current that continually changes direction as it flows. AC is an abbreviation for `alternating current'. The symbol for the element actinium. Acts of the Apostles
abbreviation for "authors correction," also referred to AA; standard acroynm for air conditioning
Alternating Current: Electrical power which repeatedly reverses direction of flow As opposed to DC Generally used for power distribution because the changing current supports the use of transformers Utilities can thus transport power at high voltage and low current, which minimize "ohmic" or I2R losses The high voltages are then reduced at power substations and again by pole transformers for delivery to the consumer
Alternating current Electrical energy which reverses its direction at regular intervals
abbreviation for Alternating Current, ie when current flows alternately in opposite directions
ACRONYM - An electrical current that periodically reverses its direction Standard in US and Canada is 60 cycles per second Europe and other countries is 50 cycles per second Alternating current (099)
Alternating Current The common form of electricity from power plant to home/office Its direction is reversed 60 times per second in the U S ; 50 times in Europe
One of the two types of electricity It stands for alternating current In alternating current, the current periodically changes direction and magnitude in the circuit
(Alternating current) An electric current that reverses direction in a circuit at regular intervals Accuracy The variation between the specified delay time and the Actual Time value, given in percent of specified delay ((Actual Time - Specified Delay Time) / Specified Delay Time)) x100 Actual Time The actual delay of a given device with sufficient "off" time of input voltage to permit full recovery of the timing interval The resulting average of a group of consecutive time delay readings (excluding the first) may be used to determine the Actual Time Five cycles should be considered adequate for this determination
Abbreviation for alternating current An electric current that reverses its direction at regularly recurring intervals
Alternating Current or the varying amplitude characteristic of an electrical signal All information-carrying signals, including audio signals, are AC, as it is the signal's variation that contains the information
An abbreviation of the term Alternating Current (electric current which flows back and forth in a circuit; all studio signals running through audio lines are AC)
Artist's copy The copy of a three-dimensional object that is retained by the artist or publisher Similar in nature to an artist's proof, it is usually the same as the edition but is a separate or additional publication
Alternating Current AC current is a waveform that regularly reverses in positive and negative directions The U S A electrical power alternates 60 times per second (60 Hz) Europe and other countries have standardized on 50 Hz
Abbreviation of alternating current However this term is also used in connection with ac voltage, that is, an "alternating" voltage that will cause an "ac current" to flow in a conductor, and also in connection with ac power
Alternating current; an electric current that reverses its direction at regularly recurring intervals
- AC energy alternates back and forth at a certain frequency In automobiles, AC is produced by the alternator and then rectified to DC (direct current) In mobile audio, AC is the current that supplies the audio signal path
