How much further would we be technologically if we had embraced Nikola Tesla’s ideas and not Thomas Edison’s?
Question by helo2k6: How much further would we be technologically if we had embraced Nikola Tesla’s ideas and not Thomas Edison’s?
Nikola Tesla was the father of alternating current (AC), which is the most common form of electricity today. Thomas Edison favored direct current (DC), the type of electricity in batteries.
However at the beginning of the 20th century, Tesla invented and had perfected a method of transmitting electricty via the atmosphere, known as the Tesla coil. This method of distribution, would have allowed our homes, buildings, and vehicles to run without the use of fossil fuels or wires. Simply put, free energy for everyone.
Edison favored a land-line wire method of distribution and ultimately won, because there was money to be made. The people with the money obviously weren’t in the business to fund a completely free method of power distribution. Ultimately, we ended up with a monthly electric bill.
Where do you think humantiy would be today, if we had adopted this free, unteathered method of power distribution?

Hummmm… Humanity?
We would probably be in a worse position than we are now.
With every new development and advance there is a reciprocal backward step and exploitation somewhere along the line!
We would simply have reached where we are today sooner.. and we would now be advanced to a place that is more anarchic and less respectful than we presently are..
Undoubtedly the earth would be in better shape.. but you asked about humanity… an as a species we are greedy, selfish and try to control the environment… his will be our undoing and would have been even if we had followed Tesla.

Answer by TeeK
Physics will cover everything.
You would have a special interest in high-energy plasmas and high-voltages. Possibly atomic theory and maybe statics.

How do I build a Tesla coil? How do I build a gauss cannon? Is there a way to intertwine these 2 ideas into 1?
Question by Altruist: How do I build a Tesla coil? How do I build a gauss cannon? Is there a way to intertwine these 2 ideas into 1?
I have had relatively little training in physics but I still have the feeling that a magnetically propelled projectile can attract the discharge of a tesla coil. Please explain to me how I can build this machine. Also, if I install a grounding wire to my 2003 Toyota Corrola can the machine in question function on top of my vehicle?

Answer by aviophage
The Gauss Cannon is more commonly called a Coil Gun. You can find all sorts of plans for building coil guns on the internet. The same goes for the Tesla Coil. They are both popular projects for skilled gadgeteers and science classes.
There is no useful connection between the projectile from a coil gun and the discharge from a Tesla Coil. If you attached a wire loop to the apex of the Tesla Coil and used the coil gun to shoot a metal projectile through the loop, you might get the T. Coil to discharge to the projectile. It would happen so fast you would probably not be able to see it.
And there would be no point in doing this. It would impart no momentum to the projectile nor alter it in any way. Just make a spark, if you were fast enough to see it.
A Tesla Coil has to be grounded, so if you sat one on top of your car, you would need a ground rod and a separate ground wire.
