We started\nthis book learning about simple electrical devices, such as lightning rods and\nlight bulbs. By the end of the book, your learned about technology changing the\nworld today! From learning about A.C. insulation motors that give incredible\nspeed to Tesla cars to the various, complex parts of a smartphone. To say the\nleast, you now know the important ideas about electricity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And, don\u2019t\nforget about the important scientists that furthered the fields of electricity.\nBen Franklin\u2019s experiment helped us better understand electricity in nature.\nThis observation helped Ben Franklin invent a device that we still use to save\nlives today. Later, Joseph Swan\u2019s first light bulb and Thomas Edison later\nperfected it, which allows us to have endless light in our homes. And, then\nNikola Tesla and his discovery of Alternating Current that allows the fast and\ncheap electricity throughout the world. Today, companies like Tesla, Inc., are\ndesigning electric cars to create a new type of car that is just as fast as\nother cars without all the pollution. \n\nSo, the next time you power on a cell phone or turn on your electric\noven to bake cookies, think about how far we have come from discovering\nelectricity. Many people in the 1800\u2019s would have never imagined that the world\nyou live in would be so full of light and energy! You have learned the same things\nand performed many of the experiments that other people used to help us design\nthis electrified world. You can continue this work, and may even event Chapter\n20 in this book! You now have the knowledge and problem-solving skills to\ncontinue this research!\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
