Long distance transmission is easy for________________?
Correct answer: B. A.C voltage
- A. D.C voltage
- B. A.C voltage
- C. Half A.C voltage
- D. Half D.C voltageGet Study Guides
Explanation
AC voltage can be stepped up or down easily with transformers. High-voltage AC transmission carries the same power at lower current, reducing I²R line losses over long distances.
