Difference between AC Motor and DC Motor

Although both AC and DC electric motor converts electric energy into mechanical energy, however their construction and way of functioning is different. AC refers alternating current which means the direction of current is reversing ( changing ) after every half cycle. DC simply means the current is flowing in one direction. DC motors are powered … Read more
