Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein is a nineteenth century gothic novel that demonstrates the discovery of the nature of electricity. In the novel‚ electricity plays a major role in creating the life of the monster. Shelley introduces science‚ especially electricity as an ethical theme and shows it through the life and demise of Victor Frankenstein and his creature. The creation of the monster does lead to Victor’s demise and Shelley parallels the idea to scientific discovery and the future. With

producing A.C. and D.C electricity. There are two type of electric current it is known as direct current (DC). The other one is known as alternating current (AC). However‚ an electric current can be produce by moving a magnet inside a coil‚ wire‚ so the size of this induces current and it is able to increase by moving the magnet faster. This is using a stronger magnet‚ so increasing the number of the turns‚ coils. It may be able to increase its area but the dynamo is a type of electricity generator.

Today‚ Americans use more electricity than ever before. The average American home consumes approximately 14‚000 kilowatt-hours per year‚ up from 2‚200 kilowatt-hours per year in 1950. The increase in energy consumption is due to electronic equipment‚ an increase in the number of appliances‚ size and their requirements for electricity. The growing amount of energy consumption means your homes‚ and especially older homes‚ electrical systems could easily be overloaded‚ and malfunction. Mister Sparky
