Thomas Alva Edison is known for making the first incandescent light bulb that has had a huge impact on the world today. He is important in United States history because he made electric light that plays a huge role on how we live, light is everywhere. Edison started from nothing and made his way to U.S. history. This wouldn’t have been possible without his motivation, preparation, and his contributions to change the World as we know it. Motivation Thomas Edison was motivated to finish the work…

Deadly, wicked, genius, brilliant, and wizard were all used to describe the bright and advanced mind of which belonged to Nikola Tesla. Too advanced for his time, Tesla’s ideas prove to be brilliant in today’s time. Tesla’s inventions and ideas lead to the advancement of society. Tesla believed that electricity could be found all around the world, and that it was easy to access. When Tesla came to America, he met an Indian Guru who taught Tesla about prana. The basis of prana is that energy…

Electrosurgery is the passage of high frequency electrical current through the body to achieve a desired surgical effect. The surgical effect can be achieved by, cutting, coagulating or fulgurating. The techniques of electrosurgery use today were developed in the early part of the 20th century; however, the history of the technique goes back as far as the early 19th Century. The French Physicist Becquerel was the first to demonstrate electrocautery, using electricity to heat a wire needle. Later…

The first part of the experiment was determining the resolution of the DAC in volts. Before a voltage was applied the noise was determined by measuring the DC offset, the reading of the DMM at an input of zero volts. This offset was removed from the recorded values in order to provide a more accurate reading of the resolution. These corrected values and their corresponding applied voltages can be found in Table 1 of the appendix. The lowest value recorded from the DMM was -9.968V and the…

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…
