Define the term induced electric current

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

i. Direct current flows in one direction, but it can increase, can be stable, or can reduce as shown in graph (a).

ii. Alternating current is oscillatory. It increases to a maximum, then reduces to zero and increases to maximum in the reverse direction and again reduces to zero. These oscillations of the alternating current can be represented in a sinusoidal manner as shown in graph (b).
