yes, it is beneficial to carry electrical energy in reverse form as it is carried over long distances.

  • It is more efficient to transmit electrical energy in the form of alternating current (AC) rather than direct current (DC) over long distances.
  • This is because AC voltage can be easily transformed to higher or lower values using transformers, which allow the electricity to be transmitted at a higher voltage and lower current.
  • This reduces the amount of electrical resistance in the transmission lines, which results in less energy loss due to heat dissipation.
  • Additionally, AC voltage naturally decreases as it travels through a transmission line due to electrical resistance.
  • This decrease in voltage can be compensated for by increasing the voltage at the beginning of the transmission line using a transformer. This allows the electricity to be transmitted at a high enough voltage to minimize energy loss, while still being safe for end users who will be using the electricity at lower voltages.
  • In contrast, it is more difficult to transform DC voltage and it is more susceptible to energy loss due to electrical resistance.

Therefore, it is generally less efficient to transmit DC electricity over long distances compared to AC electricity.

Answer: Minimum power loss is the answer to the above given question.

Explanation: When an electrical energy is carried over longer distances in the form of AC, there is minimum power loss. So it is more efficient to transmit electric energy in the form of AC rather than DC for longer distances. AC voltage can be easily transformed to higher or lower values using transformers. This will allow electricity to be transmitted at low current and high voltage. It will also reduce less energy loss and electrical resistance . So it is beneficial to carry electrical energy in reverse form as it is carried over long distances.
