Nikola Tesla, a Serbian-American physicist, and inventor were one of the most remarkable scientific minds. He is best known for making numerous contributions to alternating current (AC) electricity systems.
Tesla was a pioneer in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, and many other fields of science. He created significant scientific discoveries that laid the foundations for the modern electrical age, including radio-frequency alternating currents, rotating magnetic fields, and high-voltage high-current electric power transmission systems.
He is remembered for his many inventive and far-reaching contributions to the design of modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply, including improvements to transformer design. His work with rotating magnetic fields in AC induction motors led him to develop the fundamental principles behind the Tesla coil. He also set alight particle beam weapon speed, which he tested on October 28, 1901.
Here are his most inspiring quotes that will encourage you to be the inventor of your dreams to achieve anything.
