Which is more dangerous ac or DC shock?

DC is more dangerous because its magnitude doen't goes zero instantly after every half cycle as in case of AC .


Was Washington DC named most dangerous city in 2009?

no


Why ac current is more dangerous than dc?

no actually dc current is more dangerous than ac because dc is a direct current and has no current zero condition ,which is very dangerous and do not leave us if we get shock while ac current leave us when we get shock


AC or DC more dangerous?

yes it is 230 v is deadly, it doesn't matter if it's ac or dc. Some people say one is more dangerous than the other. That implies that there is some voltage, lower than 230 v, at which one will kill you but the other will not. There is no conclusive evidence for that, so it can't be said that ac is more dangerous than dc or vice versa.


Is DC dangerous?

There's no such phenomena as negative DC. Minus sign only means, that current is flowing the other way than you are measuring. It's danger is exactly the same as "positive" DC.

Which is more dangerous AC or DC?

I am not 100% sure but I think DC is more dangerous than AC.Both are dangerous. It is difficult to put numbers on it, as there are too many variables which determine the amount of current which flows through you when you get a shock. There is only one safe course when dealing with electricity, and that is to assume it is always dangerous and always avoid touching anything live.


Which is more dangerous AC current or DC current when the voltages are equal?

either one, neither one


Who is dangerous ac or DC supply?

ac because thats the accelerated current. and it has way higher voltage. dc direct current hs low voltage and wont hurt as bad


Can 12v DC change 250v ac?

Definitely not it could be dangerous. AC and DC can't be interchanged in general.


Why do you control the speed of DC motors?

because dc motor is a powerful & dangerous motor it is akiller


What are the advantages of DC to ac inverter?

Dc invereters are not well suited as compared to ac inverters.This is due to the reason because ac inverters are more efficient ,less dangerous and good for supply over distance.
