produced mechanically by a DC generator, or chemically by a battery

Ex: A Flashlight

Alternating Current (AC) - Answers-Current flow that reverses direction at specific
intervals, defined as Hertz / Cycles. It is produced mechanically by an AC generator

Ex: A TV Screen

Electrical Test Equipment - Answers-Multimeter

Multimeter Test Leads - Answers-Red lead = Positive and Black lead = Negative

Multimeter Digital Display Features - Answers-Power Up, Overload Indication (OL), and
