The science experiment that my partner and I are going to test is, do different brands of batteries affect the electric current of an electromagnet? Electromagnets are magnets that can be powered on and off, they can do simple tasks such as ring doorbells to surgically pull a steel splinter from your eye (Stringer). There are many factors that may affect the way electricity flows throughout metals. For example, the number of coils wrapped around the metal object may affect its magnetic strength.…

The Tesla Coil is a very enthralling invention created by Nikola Tesla in 1891. The high voltage, high frequency output of the amazing machine can cause strange effects in all sorts of materials. Though not a well known invention, the Tesla Coil plays a gigantic role in television and radio today. How does it work? What materials are used to make it? How can it be used today? And overall who was Nikola Tesla? The Tesla Coil is comprised of the following materials: a chassis, frame, cabinet or…

Tesla "The spread of civilization may be likened to a fire; first a feeble spark, next a flickering flame, then a mighty blaze, ever-increasing in speed and power." Nikola Tesla is considered the father of the electric age. From the alternating current to neon signs, his inventions revolutionized the world. He had over 250 patents throughout the world. Nikola Tesla was born in Smiljan, Croatia on July 10th , 1856. He was born to Milutin Tesla and Đuka Mandic. His father was a Serbian…

In the two articles and the video I read and watched, they all had some sort of description of electricity. I think that the purpose of each is to get the reader or viewer to learn something about electricity. In Energy Story the main idea was to teach and tell the reader about how we use appliances or things that use electricity almost every day and sometimes without even knowing. Energy Story also teaches you about atoms and how they are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. The passage…

Elon Musk is, from my point of view, one of the most important character in my generation. He created Tesla, a company that develops electrics cars, Paypal, a intelligent and useful way to pay by internet. He also created Zip2, a program that he define as a primitive Google Maps that meets Yelp. The most important of all his projects is SpaceX. This company/project is suppose one day to help the human race to move on Mars. He also developed SolarCity, a company that produce solar panels so they…

joined the debate in which greatness still eludes a precise definition. Encyclopaedia Britannica lists Nikola Tesla as one of the ‘top ten most fascinating people in history’, a genius in his field of work; credited as the inventor of the Alternating current, the radio…

Modified Circuit Modify the circuit to correct this problem by calculating the following aspects of the circuit to give a power factor of 0.9 or better: New value of capacitance Total impedance Supply current Phase angle The quantity and type of power consumed by the…

Factors That Contribute to the Digital Divide Transportation One of the crucial factors that contribute to the difficulty to spread technology and business to much of India is the lack of easy transportation. Of the over 1.34 billion people who populate India, 72.2 percent live in 638,000 villages while the remaining 27.8 percent live in only 5,480 towns and urban agglomerations (Population of India 2016, 2016). While urban cities have some paved roads and public transportation means such as…
