PLEASE HELP

which of the following household devices is most likely to be run on a direct current:

A. toaster
B. flashlight
C. clothes dryer
D. refrigerator

the answer is B Flashlight use batteries and batteries are dc

im I right

Right!

To determine which of the household devices is most likely to be run on direct current (DC), we need to understand the characteristics of each device and the type of current they require.

A. Toaster: A toaster typically operates using alternating current (AC). AC is the type of electricity that flows through electrical outlets in most households. Therefore, a toaster runs on AC rather than DC.

B. Flashlight: Flashlights generally run on direct current (DC). Most flashlights contain batteries that produce DC power. Therefore, a flashlight is most likely to be run on DC.

C. Clothes Dryer: A clothes dryer typically requires a substantial amount of power to operate. Because of this, most residential clothes dryers run on alternating current (AC). Therefore, a clothes dryer generally uses AC rather than DC.

D. Refrigerator: Similar to a clothes dryer, a refrigerator also requires a significant amount of power to run. Therefore, most refrigerators are designed to operate on alternating current (AC) as the power source.

Based on this information, the household device that is most likely to be run on a direct current is a flashlight (option B).
