You don’t want to be doing the same mistake over and over again. That is just a waste of time. In the text‚ “How a Melted Bar of Chocolate Changed Our Kitchens” it took scientists over 20 years of making mistakes to make the first real microwavable oven. Now that is over 20 years of making mistakes! This means doing something wrong over and over again for 20 years! Another example‚ in the passage “In Praise of Careful Science” it states “Don’t be fooled: Accidents don’t usually leads to perfect discoveries

machine Perry Spencer would ahve accidently invented the microwave. Perry Spencer always had an interest in tinkering and discovering how things worked. During Spencer’s early 20’s he was an employee at a company called Raytheon‚ where he invented a machine called The Magnetron. One day while Spencer was standing near the powered Magnetron‚ he noticed that a bar of chocolate in his pocket melted‚ he took popcorn kernels and put them near the heat and it turned to popcorn. If Perry Spencer would have

The scientists tried not to make any mistakes. When they announced the new discovery‚ Percy Spencer accidently discovered that magnetron’s property for heating food. That moment made him a great scientist and all the years of careful science was credited to

The inevitable conundrum of mistakes‚they have been stereotyped and forced upon the world to never be created. But‚ as previously stated‚ mistakes are inevitable. A positive effect of mistakes is a discovery. (But‚ discovery meant in its generalist form.) Most commonly used household items were mistakes. Precisely‚ in archeology‚ two men named Heinrich Schliemann and Frank Calvert are perfect proof. Throughout history‚ mistakes have carried companies and inventors far beyond their wildest dreams

The Cold War was a period of hostility‚ fear‚ and tension between the United States and the Soviet Union from the end of the 1940s to late 1980s. Like what Winston Churchill said‚ the world has been divided by the “Iron Curtain” during the Cold War between the Communists and the capitalists. It was called the Cold War because it was only a psychological warfare with no active wars between the two nations‚ which were due to the fear of nuclear arms. The result of the Cold War affected the world

Or even life without a computer. It sure would be hard to imagine living like that‚ wouldn’t it? Well that’s what life would be like today without inventions from the 1940’s.

1. What were the order winner/order qualifiers for Galanz in the microwave oven business during the early stage of its development? When Galanz started its business‚ the microwave oven business in China was in its infancy and it was less risk to invest in the technology associated with microwave ovens because this technology had been mature and stable for a long time. At the early stage‚ Galanz did not have any competitive edge in production technology but only an abundant supply of cheap labor

EXAMPLE OF TECHNOLOGY MICROWAVE OVEN It is a machine that cooks food using microwaves‚ a type of radio wave. The microwave oven uses a magnetron. This is similar to a radio transmitter. It makes very short radio waves which go right into the food to a depth of about 2.5cm. This makes water molecules swing to and fro at about 2.5 billion times a second. This heats up the molecules around it. As they heat up the heat goes to the inside of the food. This process is called conduction. This also

the success of Galanz? The microwave oven market in the 1980s was in its infancy in China‚ where competition and demand size were small. Only a few foreign brands such as Toshiba‚ LG and Whirlpool were in the market and they had no clear intention to expand and dominate because they had not yet sensed the market potential‚ due in part to their lack of familiarity with the rapidly evolving Chinese market environment. Besides‚ the high price of their microwave ovens was unaffordable to most Chinese
