% Alternating Current
% Release version 2, January 2000
%Question: 1
#8.1 An 'alternating current' is so called because:
it reverses direction periodically
it travels through a circuit using alternate paths
its direction of travel is uncertain
its direction of travel can be altered by a switch
% ans 1
