Compare and contrast alternating current and direct current. give two ways that they are alike and one way that they are different.

 One way they are different is a direct current is a set amount of current, meaning it has a constant rate whereas in contrast with alternating current, it alternates in a periodic pattern. 

  Electrons flow from a higher potential difference to a lower potential difference and this flow is known as current

                     I hope this helps some:)

Direct current is unidirectional. It always flows in the same direction from positive to negative.

Alternate current reverses direction in periods of time. Imagine a sine wave form, it has a maximum positive value then goes to 0 and reaches a minimum negative value then goes to 0 again and keeps going...

In other words:

They are alike because both can power an electrical device and rely on electrons flow to do so.

They are different because DC is unidrectional and AC reverses direction. Also, AC has associated frequency and DC has not or its "0". If someone ever tells you that the voltage for any system is 460V @60hz, you will definitely know they´re talking about Alternate Current.

emily ruth's annual premium is $1058.50

step-by-step explanation:

emily ruth is a female of 27 years age purchasing 20 year endowment insurance with face value $25000.

from the given table,

for females, the age of a male 3 years younger should be used.

so, we have to check for 24 year male for 20 year endowment.

it is 42.34 for every $1000 face value.

for a face value of $25000,

it is 25 * 42.34 = $1058.50

∴ emily ruth's annual premium is $1058.50
