उत्तर

  Direct current   Alternating current
1 Direct current flows only in one direction. 1 Alternating current reverses its direction periodically with time.
2 It cannot be used in large-scale generation of electricity for household purposes. 2 It is used in household electrical appliances such as electric heater, electric iron, refrigerator etc.
3 The frequency of direct current is zero. 3 The frequency of alternating current in India is 50 Hz.
