Only a DC motor uses direct current, and the reason is that it is the only supply available.

There are also plenty of AC motors used when there is an AC supply.

DC tends to be used for low-power devices like fans in electronic equipment.

Depends on the design. Electric motors can be made to run on alternating current as well.

Electric motors can be made to use either direct or alternating current. Many small home motors use direct current for safety.
