Today (January 7, 1943) is the anniversary of the announcement of the Nobel Prize Nikola Tesla who is Guardian of modern electronics, renowned in the fields of electronics and magnetism
Nikola Tesla was born on July 10,
1856, in Similjon, on the Croatian military front. He is of Serbian descent. He
was a citizen of the Austrian Empire and later became a US citizen. He is best
known for his revolutionary contributions to the fields of electronics and
magnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tesla's patents and
theories are the basis of modern alternating current power systems, including
multilevel power supply systems and alternating current motors. Through these, he helped to create a second industrial revolution. His contemporaries hailed
him as the "Father of Physics", the "Inventor of the Twentieth
Century" and the "Guardian of Contemporary Electronics".
Tesla was hailed as one of the
greatest electrical engineers to ever work in the United States, following events
such as his pageant victory over wireless communication (radio) in 1894, and
his victory in the "electric war". His early works pioneered
contemporary electrical engineering, and many of his inventions were
significant enough to make twists and turns. In the United States at the time,
Tesla's reputation was no less than that of any other inventor or scientist.
However, his craziness and his unreliable claims about the development of
science and technology led to the notion that he was a mad scientist. Using
Nikola Tesla's patented invention, he was able to produce high-voltage
electricity from Niagara Falls and carry it for miles. He has been instrumental
in the development of American industry. His tools on X-ray and Tesla coils are
still used today.
He first joined Edison. The
countless inventions he made were added to Edison's account. To say that he
would better replace Edison's low-power electric motor, and to say that he
would pay fifty thousand dollars if he did so, was to say, "That's a joke!"
Edison left angrily to mount the salary a little. The radio created by Marconi
was made with his seventeen patented materials. While Edison was supplying
electricity using direct current, he was adamant that the opposite direction
could be used to carry electricity farther through thin wires. Similarly, Edison
created and showed up after leaving. He took electricity from the ionosphere
and made sure that electricity could be made available to all the people of the
world like water.
He was the first pioneer to study
radar and radio X-rays. He also built the world's first hydroelectric power
station. He has developed several remote controls, seismometers. He
developed neon bulbs that were many times more efficient than Edison's bulbs
during the siege of the market. He spent all the money he earned on research.
He died a debtor at the time of his death. He had no intention of making sense
of what he had discovered until the end. Tesla, who was clear that science
should be of use to the people, committed suicide and died without anyone
noticing. He was the father of the electric age who thought for the common
people. The magnetic field unit is named after him in his memory.
Nikola Tesla was one of the
foremost scientists of the time who told Swami Vivekananda that the results of
Vedanta principles were surprisingly similar to rationality. Nikola Tesla
listened to Swami Vivekananda's speech while standing for hours without a place
to sit. On February 5, 1896, Swami Vivekananda and Tesla met at the home of
businessman Austin. Swamiji's devotee and French actress Sarah Bernhardt were
also present during the meeting. 19th-century scholars relied on Newton's
assertion that the atom is solid, unbreakable, and indivisible. But matter and
energy are essentially the same things. Although Nicola did not initially
believe in the theological idea that one could be transformed into another, in
his later years he accepted Swamiji's view that matter could be transformed
into a material force and published his conclusion. In that article, he recalled
the same Sanskrit words used by Swamiji 40 years ago.
The great scientist Tesla, though
experimentally inspired by Swamiji's discourse ideas, was not able to prove it
to Swamiji immediately. However, it was later demonstrated by a scientist named
Einstein (Mass Energy). After Marconi was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1909, the
news of the distribution of the Nobel Prize in Physics to Thomas Alva Edison
and Tesla in 1915 sparked major conflicts. It also fostered animosity between
the two, and both were reluctant to accept the offer. They also refused to
share the gift. A few years after the controversy, neither Tesla nor Edison was
rewarded. Earlier in 1912, it was rumoured that he had been nominated for the
Nobel Prize in Physics for his design of circuits using high voltage high-frequency resonance transformers. Nikola Tesla passed away on January 7, 1943, at the age of 86 in New York, USA.
