So what do washing machines use, AC or DC?

Water and some sort of cleaning chemicals dependent on personal choice.

Did you not understand the question?

Yes and my answer made as much sense as the question.

The question only had four possible answers - "AC", "DC", "both", or "neither".

I don't know of any washing machine that plugs into a DC supply.

The motor silly.

Every washing machine that I have seen that plugs in has a 3 pin plug on it designed to work from AC.

The motor usually does not have a plug on it.

How do you know, I'd assume most are conencted to a mother board or PCB of some sort using a connector that could be described as a plug that fits into a socket.

Not a "3 pin plug on it designed to work from AC".

They may exist I don;t know and care about as much.
Older washing machines were usually run by women turning handles and rubbing clothes on rocks or wash boards.

Were they naked?

No.

No point in having two sets of clothes, just take them off, wash them, then put them back on to dry. Bloody prudes.

Is that what you were doing waiting in the cold stream for your clothes to dry ?
Do you only have one set of clothes too.

I didn't take any with me, well only shorts.

Is that one of your fantasies... AC/DC ?

TENS machines are AC.

Well good luck with it hope you enjoy it.

How odd that was the first thing that came to your mind. They're actually used for many things - pain relief for example. I know a woman who has one attached to her back for most of the day. It prevents the muscles cramping up.

Of course you can also torture folk with them.

I know all about current flow, holes in semiconductors etc. But that's irrelevant. I asked if the flow was one way or both.

It's both in AC, it's not in DC

And which is it in the motor?

That would depend on the type of motor.

Evasion again.
