Electric clippers and hair dryers are examples of barbering tools that use what?

  1. Direct current

  2. Alternating current

  3. Static electricity

  4. Battery power

The correct answer is: Alternating current

Electric clippers and hair dryers use alternating current (AC) because they require a constant and consistent source of power. Direct current (DC) and battery power are not suitable options as they do not provide a continuous flow of electricity. Static electricity is also not a suitable option as it does not provide the necessary power to operate these tools.
