Which of the following devices is most likely to operate on alternating current ($\mathrm{AC}$)?

In the context of alternating voltages and currents, which of the following best describes the frequency of an alternating current?

Which of the following is a primary advantage of using $AC$ power over $DC$ power for large-scale electrical distribution?

The current in an AC circuit takes 0.02 s to change direction. What is the angular frequency of the AC source?

An AC source produces an alternating current in a circuit with the function $i\(\left\)(t\(\right\))=\(\left\)(1.5A\(\right\))\(\cos\[\left\]\lbrack\[\left\)(250s^{-1}\(\right\))t\(\right\]\rbrack\)$. What is the frequency of the source? What is the maximum current in the circuit?
