    Alternating current is an electric current where the magnitude and direction cyclically vary in a sinusoidal, up-and-down pattern over time. This oscillating form allows alternating current to transmit energy more efficiently than a steady current. Examples are given that if phone batteries or hydropower resources are continually used without replenishment, they will eventually be depleted.

    definition

    electric current characterized in that the


    magnitude and direction have a cyclic
    variation. Meanwhile, the way in which
    this type of current will oscillate is
    sinusoidal, that is, a curve that goes up
    and down continuously. Thanks to this
    form of oscillation, alternating current
    manages to transmit energy more
    efficiently.
    Examples with conditional zero
    • if you use the phone battery it will soon be
    discharged

    If we continue to use water for hydropower we


    will not have water in the future
    Thanks for your attention
