is a high voltage transformer. This invention set up the basis for wireless technology and to this day is still used in radio technology. The Tesla Coil is the core of an electric circuit, an inductor used in the early forms of radio transmission antennas. The function of the coil simply cooperates with a capacitor to resonate current and voltage from across the circuit a power source. This helped Tesla study fluorescence, x-rays, radio, wireless power, and electromagnetism in the earth and the…
