Electricity generation is the process of creating electricity from other forms of energy. The fundamental principles of electricity generation were discovered during the 1820s and early 1830s by the British scientist Michael Faraday. His basic method is still used today: electricity is generated by the movement of a loop of wire‚ or disc of copper between the poles of a magnet.[1] For electric utilities‚ it is the first process in the delivery of electricity to consumers. The other processes

Life without electricity Imagine life without electricity‚ not just a brief power outage. We all know how inconvenient life becomes when our electricity is out for only a few hours. How hard it is to remember for that short period of time that the light switch will not produce instant light‚ the hair dryer will not immediately blow dry our hair‚ or that we can’t even run water into our homes. Our homes and lives have become so dependent on electricity it is really hard to imagine everything that

human nature to argue? In their claim that everyone is engaged in argument‚ whether they realize it or not‚ nearly every day‚ I thought‚ the authors of the First Year Writing: Perspective on argument were being preposterous. How can I not know if I were being engaged in arguments on a daily basis? However‚ it is only after reading about the various topics that the omnipresence of argument in our lives struck me. Indeed‚ the claim‚ that initially made me feel skeptical‚ was not much of an aberration

Electricity was first researched by Thales of Miletos around 600BC. He conducted a few experiments on static electricity in which he believed that friction made amber become magnetized. Other than the fact that people knew that eels produced electric shocks‚ electricity was little more than an intellectual curiosity for over 2000 years. Until 1600 when someone from England discovered the lodestone effect when amber with static would attract small objects towards it. In the 18th century‚ Benjamin

During the Industrial Revolution numerous inventions were created in order to solve problems that arose at that time. Also‚ in this time period one invention created a “ripple-effect” that soon led to the development of another invention. Over time as more and more innovations came about the simpler life became. In our current time period there are a variety of inventions that people use to simplify their lives on a daily basis. Nowadays many of these utilities are taken advantage of. People do not

Is a discovery an invention or is an invention a discovery? This is one question that can probably never be answered. A discovery can be defined as something which already existed‚ and is excavated after one notice’s it or proves its existence . Invention is the creation of something which didn’t exist before it was created by a genius mind . For instance‚ Newton discovered the existence of gravity when an apple fell on his head. It did exist before Newton realizes its existence‚ but

What is Magnetism? Properties of Magnets: Magnet: any material that attracts iron and materials that contain iron Magnets attract iron and materials that contain iron. magnets attract or repel other magnets. In addition‚ one part of a magnet will always point north when allowed to swing freely. Magnetic Poles: Magnetic Pole: any magnet with 2 ends‚ each is called a magnetic pole. Magnetic poles that are unlike attract each other and magnetic poles that are alike repel each other. Magnetic
