Blog Post #19

Hey guys, it's me with another blog post.  Today I'm going to talk to you about currents.  Currents are the number of charges passing a point per second.  There are two types of currents, there are DC and AC.  They are called DC circuits and AC circuits.  DC circuits are direct currents which charges flow one way.  And AC circuits which charges flow both ways.  The television I have on my picture has a DC circuit because the charges from the plug go directly to the television.  But in the matters of an AC circuit, that can be demonstrated through your cellphone charger.  When the charger is hooked to the wall, charges from the wall, through the plug, which converts the charges from AC to DC then into your phone.  I hope that helps a little, yeah it got kind of confusing for me as well.
