Both the answers from "Big D" and "N9KXF" are correct, but not complete. There is one aspect that needs to be remembered for AC power - the phase relationship between the voltage and current. 

<span>For AC power, the more complete equation for power is P = V * I * cosx, where x is the phase angle between voltage and current. </span>

<span>If the phase angle between voltage and current is 90 degrees, then even though current may be flowing, the total power over a cycle would be zero. Reactive elements like inductors and capacitors have a 90degree phase relationship between voltage and current. They do not "dissipate" energy. They store energy and give it back during different parts of the AC cycle. </span>

Traveling in circle requires a net force
seraphim [82]

Answer:

<u><em>Circular motion requires a net inward or "centripetal" force. Without a net centripetal force, an object cannot travel in circular motion. In fact, if the forces are balanced, then an object in motion continues in motion in a straight line at constant speed.</em></u>
