Can failing be counted as an accomplishment? Thomas Edison the inventor of the light bulb and many other inventions would say yes. One of Edison’s co- workers said that it was a shame that he spent so much time on the new battery and had produced no results. Edison thought of his failures in a different and optimistic way and replied with ‘“Results? Why‚ man‚ I have gotten a lot of results!

Have you ever stopped and wondered how tall buildings are able to be stable? What strong material helps them stand tall and strong? Many buildings and structures we have these days could not have been possible if it wasn’t for Henry Bessemer. Today we can see that big countries‚ especially cities‚ are heavily influenced on tall skyscrapers. Structures and many architectures were stronger and lasted longer when Henry Bessemer developed the first process for manufacturing steel inexpensively. But how

Electricity‚ what a wonderful advancement that was invented throughout history. If there wasn’t electricity we wouldn’t be able to power our cars‚ turn on our stoves‚ plug our phone chargers into the wall socket or even be able to turn on our artificial light when it’s dark outdoors. Electricity has made a huge impact on our lives. Most people don’t realize how different the world would be if Benjamin Franklin never started his kite and key experiment. The world may have never evolved into the world

| Maximizing the Range and Power of Inductive Coupling | | | Isaiah Anderson | 1/11/2013 | | Abstract In this project I studied how an electrical current moving through a coil of wire can generate an electric magnetic field and power an electrical load connected to a similar coil of wire. This experiment has been performed before but the goal of this project was to increase the efficiency of the circuit. In this experiment multiple different coils were tested in order to find

The teledensity in India grew at a rate from just about three for every 100 people in 2000 to reach 10.66 per 100 as of October 2005. This phenomenal growth in the telecommunication scenario can be attributed to the exponential growth of the wireless phones in the country. The Government has targeted to have subscriber base of 250 million phones
