Gustavo Oliveira Coutinho, 4º ano Class: 4BTEL Innovate Tesla: the resurgence of Nikola Tesla from oblivion to spotlight Introduction Nikola Tesla is one of the most controversial figures on science. While many judged him simply as a mad scientist, few were able to see how he was ahead of his own time, providing the theoretical and practical foundation to several modern equipments. We, as a society, not only owe Tesla for the AC (alternating current) electric system of supply, but…

rivals with his apprentice, Nikola Tesla. Both Edison and Tesla were working on trying to find the correct way to improvise upon the light bulb. However, Tesla believed in Alternating Current, while Edison believed in Direct Current. Edison will not accpet Tesla's idea of providing electricity to the light bulb with Alternating Current. As a result, Tesla succeeded from Thomas' company and created his own company that was funded by investor J.P. Morgan. Nikola Tesla and…
