Westinghouse saw the potential in alternating current as an electricity distribution system in the early 1880s and put all his resources into developing and marketing it, a move that put his business in direct competition with the Edison direct current system. In 1911 Westinghouse received the AIEE's Edison Medal "For meritorious achievement in connection with the development of the alternating current system."</span>

Summarize the article "why do people follow the crowd"
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer: People follow a crowd to feel included

Explanation:

People generally follow others to feel like they belong to a group or a part of society. If you were to follow your friends around, it is because you like hanging with them or because they give you a sense of belonging. So if this group of friends was a crowd would you still follow them, because they give you that sense or would you stop following them because there is more people?

I hope that helped!
