What problem did thomas Edison face regarding use of electricity and how did he solve it?
Edison had his electric incandescent light, but the greatest problem Edison faced with electricity was its distribution. Edison was a proponent of DC electricity. However, distributing DC electricity to the masses was expensive and, ultimately, proved impractical. George Westinghouse, along with one of the smartest people who ever lived (IMO), Nikola Tesla, proved that AC electricity was much more economically distributed. Tesla, at one time, worked for Edison but Edison found his AC ideas 'impractical.' Tesla thus went to work for George Westinghouse who, earlier in 1869, invented the airbrake for trains.
This battle between Edison's DC electricity and Westinghouse's AC electricity culminated in 'The Battle of the Currents' in which George Westinghouse and his AC prevailed and why we use AC in the US to this day..
