    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…

    This is resistance, which is measured in units called ohms. Resistance is a term that describes the forces that oppose the flow of electron current in a conductor. All materials naturally contain some resistance to the flow of electron current. We have not found a way to make conductors that do not have some resistance. If we use our water analogy to help picture resistance, think of a hose that is partially plugged with sand. The sand will…
