    Explanation:

    The computer has a PSU (power supply unit) which is a hardware component of a computer that supplies all other components with power. The power supply converts the 120 volt AC (alternating current) into a steady low-voltage DC (direct current) usable by the computer.

    parts in a PSU include

    A rectifier that converts AC (alternating current) into DC.

    A filter that smooths out the DC (direct current) coming from a rectifier.

    A transformer that controls the incoming voltage by stepping it up or down.

    A voltage regulator that controls the DC output, allowing the correct amount of power, volts or watts, to be supplied to other computer hardware.
