Textbook Question
Chapter 32, Problem 72PQ
Imagine a glorious day after you’ve finished school; you are working as a scientist or engineer in a large research laboratory. Most likely you won’t always agree with all the people who work on your team. What would you do if you disagreed with your boss, and your boss was the well-known American hero Thomas Edison? Think of Tesla. In 1882, Edison was known worldwide as the great inventor of the telegraph, phonograph, and incandescent bulb, while Tesla was a 26-year-old immigrant to the United States. Tesla originally worked for Edison, but they didn’t get along and Tesla left in 1885. One of the major disagreements between the two was over the motor: Edison favored the DC motor and Tesla the AC version. In 1888, Tesla gave a presentation to the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, arguing for AC motors and generators. Present a case in favor of the AC motor and generator over their DC counterparts. Be fair in your presentation, listing the pros and cons of both AC and DC.
