Alternating Current

Question:

Consider the following statements and then select the correct statements.

I. Most of the electrical device we use require AC voltage.
II. Most of the electrical energy sold by power companies is transmitted and distributed as alternating current.
III. AC voltage can be easily and efficiently converted from one to the other by means of transformers.

Options:

I is correct, II and III are incorrect

I, III are correct, II is incorrect

I, II are correct, III is incorrect

I, II and III are correct

Correct Answer:

I, II and III are correct

Explanation:

Most of the electrical devices we use require AC voltage. This is mainly because most of the electrical energy sold by power companies is transmitted and distributed as alternating current. The main reason for preferring use of AC voltage over DC voltage is that Ac voltage can be easily and efficiently converted from one voltage to the other by means of transformers.
