What was the war of currents between thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla?

Edison had his empire build on the Direct current and Tesla came with the alternate current which was better. In the end Nikola Tesla won.


Who is Tesla's nemesis?

Edison


How do you feel what happened between thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla?

Edison was a greedy man. Most of his patents were done by his employees and he claimed the patent. Even the direct current motor was a thing he could not get it to work right. Tesla had it ready in a heart beat and Edison was not a man of his work and didn't pay Tesla for his work. Edison has the highest inventions stolen from the righteous owners.


Was there another scientist that worked with Nikola Tesla?

He worked with the Edison company. This didn't mean they worked together. Tesla worked underneath Edison's command as a employee and not coworker. When Tesla came to the United States, Edison had serious problems with his direct curent motor which Tesla corrected. Edison didn't not meet his payment agreement so Tesla left his company. As most Edison's patents were the work of employees in his company, so was the major contribution Edison did electricatly which was the direct current motor which was in great part made by Tesla. Edison couldn't work it work no matter what.


Why didn't Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla get along?

Tesla vs Edison is a traditional science battle but long since past. Edison had a primitive DC current as opposed to Tesla AC, which is the usual current now a days. both sides had different designs for light bulbs, Tesla being better. Tesla got his 15 minutes of fame at the world fair. they used AC & Tesla's light bulbs. Edison was rich but Tesla died in the red. also tesla was a inventor more of the thinking type but edison was a tinkering man.

Who is better tesla or Edison?

In the reason and logic, Tesla was better.


What is the conflict between Nikola Tesla and Edison?

Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison were opponents in The Battle of the Currents, the rivalry between Tesla's alternating current (AC) system for electricity and Edison's direct current (DC) system for electricity. AC 'won' the battle, the current is far more effective. This means that all electricity used today travels by AC, not DC. All DC is used for anymore is batteries.


How did Nikola Tesla rival Edison?

In the "War of Currents" era in the late 1880s, George Westinghouse and Thomas Edison became adversaries due to Edison's promotion of direct current (DC) for electric power distribution over alternating current (AC) advocated by Westinghouse and Nikola Tesla. Edison had major flaws in his DC machine. Tesla made it work right. Edison has the pattent. In few words looking back in time, research shows that Edison had his inventors working for him getting him the patents. Edison never had ideas like Tesla had.

What did Tesla do different in making his own incandescent light bulbs when Edison refused to provide light bulbs to Tesla so that they did not violate Edison's patents?

Tesla bypassed Edison's patent by making his bulbs with a bi-pin base instead of the screw in Edison base. It was only the patent for the Edison base that could reliably be enforced at the time.
