Answer:
The change that has to take place inside the power cord in order for the device to function properly include;
The changing of the alternating current (AC) from the electrical outlet to the direct current having a specific voltage and current value with which the device can be powered
Explanation:
A battery powered device makes use of direct current (DC) electric power from a battery, while the power normally given out at an electrical outlet comes as an alternating current (AC) electric power source.
The power cord for battery-powered device, also known as an AC/DC adapter, that allows them to be plugged into electrical outlets converts the AC electric current it obtains from the electrical outlets to DC electrical current of the appropriate voltage and amperage that the device can make use of for electric power to function and for charging the battery which is the power source for the device
Therefore, the change that has to take place in the power cord is the conversion of the electric outlet alternating current (AC) voltage and amperage values, into direct current (DC) of the required voltage and current for the device
