A Spark of Brilliance: The Edison and Tesla Rivalry Thomas Edison is commonly referred to as one of the greatest inventors in history‚ with 1‚300 patents‚ and work with direct current (DC) that still impacts society. Despite this‚ Nikola Tesla has impacted the world through his work with alternating current (AC)‚ which are used to supply power to homes‚ and his creation of the first hydroelectric power plant. Thomas Edison made a monumental impact with his alteration of the electric light bulb

voltage‚ which is applied. Voltage is the push given to the current. The current has to go through a circuit‚ which contains resistance so if you increase that push you also increase the flow of the current. All materials have a slight resistance to electricity factors affecting the resistance are: Length‚ Voltage & Temperature and Surface Area Length The diagram shows the happenings of a wire the blue dots represent some of the negative electrons which leads to a lower voltage output‚

Electricians do many different jobs involving electricity. They will install electric power and will maintain that power. They also install lighting in homes and businesses. They may also install video and voice wiring. An electrician can either work in construction or maintenance but can do both. There was about 584‚000 electricians employed in 2012. A person who wants to become an electrician must enroll in an apprenticeship program that puts together classroom instruction with on job training

Electrolysis design internal assessment Introduction to experiment Electrolysis is a method using a direct electric current to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction. It involves the stage in the separation of elements from naturally occurring sources such as ores. In this experiment‚ methods to alter rate of electrolysis will be attempted to be discovered. Although many contributing factors could affect the rate of electrolysis which could include internal energy within the electrolyte or
