Thomas Edison might have been a leading inventor in his time, because he created the light bulb but that was really his main achievement. Leonardo DA Vinci was better because he had more inventions, better known for his work, and he was specialized in many lines of inventing. Now you really need to think Thomas Edison was responsible for…

“Thousands of workers from China helped build America’s Transcontinental Railroad” (Lewis).

In 1959, metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) was invented by Dawon Kahng and Martin M. (John) Atalla at Bell Labs. Julius Edgar Lilienfeld had already patented the basic principle of this kind of transistor in 1925. But later the Bell Labs edition was allocated the name bipolar junction transistor, or merely junction transistor, and design of Lilienfeld came to be identified as field effect transistor. Later, Jean Hoerni found that Silicon dioxide (SiO2) should be used to…

u know that the first message of Morse code was sent to someone 40 miles away in May 1844, the message sent was "What hath God Wrought?” My name is Shae Phillips and today I will be telling you who, what, when, where and why Morse code was invented and how it changed the economy, society and what were the short and long term effects and how revolutionised the future. In 1838 Morse code was invented by Samuel Morse. Morse then further introduced a working telegraph in 1844 which allowed users on…

Have you ever heard of Samuel Morse? If you have then you know that he was a co-inventor of Morse Code. Morse Code is a systematic way of transmitting information via code and it is sent either from light or from off and on tones. Samuel Morse is known for much more than Morse Code, however. He originally gained his reputation for being a portrait painter and by helping invent the single-wired telegraph. Because of what is being called the Industrial Revolution many new inventions like Morse Code…

Technological innovations had a major impact on the U.S during the Gilded Age. Our major inventors were Thomas Edison and Nicola Tesla. Thomas Edison invented the DC light bulb however, Nicola Tesla invented the AC light bulb. Tesla worked under Edison as his apprentice when he was working on the light bulb. While Tesla was under Edison, JP Morgan was trying to find an industry that he could rise from the ground, and that's when he found Edison with electricity and the light bulb. JP…

What if the only way you could communicate with your friends was by telegraph? Receiving the message was almost as fast as getting a texting back but the process of sending the message was a hastle. Having to decode the set of dashes, dots, and lines took minutes maybe hours and just as long to write another and tap the transmission key according to each letter in your message. The telegraph improved communication systems during the Industrial Revolution, gave a light to inventors, looking for…

Without the work of Thomas Edison the world be very different than it is now, due to how much we rely on his inventions. During the Industrial Revolution numerous inventions were created to improve the lives of Americans. Without the inventions of Thomas Edison, the world would be much different than it is now because we would not have the technology to live. Edison’s life had a big impact on the inventions he created. Edison was born in Milan, Ohio on February 11, 1847. He went to school…
