<span>In direct current (DC), the electric charge (current) only flows in one direction. Electric charge in alternating current (AC), on the other hand, changes direction periodically. The voltage in AC circuits also periodically reverses because the current changes direction.</span>

Answer: alternating current regularly reverses direction. Direct current flows in only one direction

These are more of ideas to help your brain invent something less chessy...
Erosion is like corrosion, with no acid.
Erosion happens 'cuz the surface get frozen and beaten by the ocean. (they kinda rhyme) :)
Erosion is the transportation of, the deportation... 
~OR~
I cant think of anything for weathering but i got something good, but its still cheesy/ ):

Erosions' got the grooves and so it moves. But weathering breakdown and changes so its molecules changes.
I'm sorry these kinda suck...

A certain type of laser emits light that has a frequency of 4.2 × 1014 Hz. The light, however, occurs as a series of short pulse
bogdanovich [222]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of the laser light, f=4.2\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Time, t=3.2\times 10^{-11}\ s

(a) Let \lambda is the wavelength of this light. It can be calculated as :

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4.2\times 10^{14}}

\lambda=7.14\times 10^{-7}\ m

or

\lambda=714\ nm

(b) Let n is the number of the wavelengths in one pulse. It can be calculated as :

n=f\times t

n=4.2\times 10^{14}\times 3.2\times 10^{-11}

n = 13440

Hence, this is the required solution.

In an experiment refractive index of glass was observed to be 1.45,1.56,1.54,1.44,1.54and1.53. Calculate mean value of refractiv
Sever21 [200]
The mean may be calculated by summing the values of the refractive index and dividing the sum by the number of experiments. This is:
Mean = (1.45 + 1.56 + 1.54 + 1.44 + 1.54 + 1.53)/6
Mean = 1.51

The mean absolute error is the sum of the absolute values of errors divided by the number of trials:
MAE = (|1.45-1.51|+|1.56-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.44-1.51|+|1.54-1.51|+|1.53-1.51|)/6
MAE = 0.043

The fractional error is the MAE divided by the actual value:
Fractional error = 0.043 / 1.51
Fractional error = 43/1510

The percentage error is the fractional error multiplied by 100:
Percentage error = 2.85%

When Earth and the Moon are separated by a
Wewaii [24]
     Using the Universal Gratitation Law, we have:

F= \frac{MmG}{d^2}  \\ MmG=2*10^{20}*(3.84*10^8)^2 \\ MmG=29.4912*10^36
 
     Again applying the formula in the new situation, comes:

F= \frac{MmG}{d^2} \\ F= \frac{29.4912*10^36}{(1.92*10^8)^2} \\ \boxed {F=8*10^{20}}

Number 4

If you notice any mistake in my english, please let me know, because i am not native.
