It depends on the requirement. But in most cases, AC generator will be preferred over a DC one. DC generator can be useful in cases where you just require a continuous supply of current without any disturbance. But if you want a good quality current to be transmitted over longer distances for significant period of time, go for an AC generator. AC generators are much more reliable and also have longer life durations.

The key difference between these two is slip rings are the rings used in an AC generator for generating AC current. While commutators are used in DC generators to produce DC current. If we talk about the shape, slip ring is a continuous circle while commutator is divided into two halves.

Alternating Current is the type of current whose direction isn't uniform and can change constantly. On the other hand, dc current is the type of current who can have a single direction only. DC is a comparatively low quality current as compared to an AC current.

These two are varied terms, similar in their functioning but differ in their output. Inductance stores energy in the magnetic field to oppose the flow of electric current. And capacitance stores energy in the electric field in order to oppose the flow of voltage through the device. Capacitance is measured through the SI unit Farad (F).

While both of them oppose the flow of electric current, the key difference lies in their energy output. In the case of resistance, energy is released in the form of heat. On the other hand, inductance stores energy in its magnetic field and doesn't waste it.

The name of this SI Unit Henry is derived from the name of the scientist who discovered the concept of inductance and electromagnetic induction, Joseph Henry. He was a scientist from America who supported the principles of Faraday and helped in bringing a revolution in the field of modern physics.

Ohm's Law states that when the temperature remains constant, the current (I) flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to voltage (v), and inversely proportional to resistance (R).
