The Hartnell Governor Stationary steam engines‚ traction engines‚ portable and semi-portable engines all require some method of steam regulation to enable the operator to maintain adequate control over the machine. A device known as a governor is the piece of equipment used for this purpose. Numerous types of governors have been designed and put into use. It is widely accepted that the Watt governor may be one of the oldest‚ if not the oldest‚ design which can still be found in use on numerous applications

John Lewis IDS 103 Paper #3 3/16/15 In the book‚ Down the Asphalt Path‚ Clay McShane constructed an argument trying to disprove the theory of “technological determinism”. This is the idea that technology influences society‚ society doesn’t influence technology. Although the author has many views against the premise‚ he is not entirely correct. In my opinion‚ the car shaped the landscape of American cities. More arguments can be made to prove technological determinism and how it has changed society

In the Victorian Era‚ there were many advancements in steam power. Before this era‚ “man relied on his own muscles and those of domesticated animals‚ wind‚ and water as sources of power” (Kras 6). Steam power was used for industry‚ transport‚ agriculture and generate electricity (Burton 3). Advancements in steam power enabled men to work more efficiently‚ trade goods overseas and across land faster‚ and provided transport for people. Steam power caused drastic changes such as people no longer worked

Has ICT had a greater impact than steam power? ICT and steam power are both General Purpose Technologies (GPTs); technologies which are pervasive‚ has multiple complementarities and a wide range of productivity effects which affects an entire economy. There are three main groups of beneficiaries: firms‚ workers and customers. The first steam engine was invented in the 1769 however there was a lag from when it was produced to when it was widely used. This was because the steam engine was initially
