An electric current that rapidly changes directions is known as an alternating current (AC). This type of current flows back and forth in a circuit, changing direction at a specific frequency, such as 60 Hz in many parts of the world. This is in contrast to direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction.

What is meant by orthogonal directions of polarization?
Orthogonal directions of polarization refer to two perpendicular directions in which an electromagnetic wave's electric field oscillates. In these directions, the electric fields are independent of each other and can be represented as perpendicular vectors. This property is commonly seen in linearly polarized light.
When electric current changes direction is called?
When electric current changes direction, it is called alternating current (AC).
What m-word is defined as a device that changes sounds into electric current?
A microphone is the device that changes sounds into electric current.
What is reflection of light in random directions called?
It is called scattering light if it is in random directions, or refraction if the light changes direction.
When Electric field lines point in the opposite direction changes would move if they were in the field?
If electric field lines point in opposite directions, charges placed in the field would experience a force in the direction of the stronger field. Charges will move in response to this net force, accelerating in the direction of the stronger field lines.
What changes rapidly?
Technology, trends, and weather can all change rapidly.

When water is heated rapidly changes into steam this process is called?
When water is heated rapidly and changes into steam, this process is called boiling.
When wave changes directions when its speed changes what is it called?

What is it called when wave changes directions when its speed changes?
It's called refraction.
An electric generator changes the energy of what?
Electric energy into motion.
When electric current changes direction is called?
When electric current changes direction, it is called alternating current (AC).
Very energetic particles that move rapidly in all directions in the space outside the necleus of an atom are?
