  • Look at those genius hands plotting the next world takeover... lol

  • but thanks for the intel. I never knew electrons could collide on a wire

  • AC could also REPRESENT ALTERNATING CURRENT and DC could also REPRESENT DIRECT CURRENT—IT DOES NOT HAVE TO STAND, GOOD SIR.

  • Good info about the these two types of electrictiy.

    Question regarding AC: AC still has to move forward does it not or there would be no power at the end of the power line/cord. How does an alternating current move forward? Does it move foward?

  • tell us about the difference between analogue and digital ?
