HISTORY OF ELECTRICITY Depite what you have learned‚ Benjamin Franklin did not "invent" electricity. In fact‚ electricity did not begin when Benjamin Franklin at when he flew his kite during a thunderstorm or when light bulbs were installed in houses all around the world. The truth is that electricity has always been around because it naturally exists in the world. Lightning‚ for instance‚ is simply a flow of electrons between the ground and the clouds. When you touch something and get a shock

What is Magnetism? Properties of Magnets: Magnet: any material that attracts iron and materials that contain iron Magnets attract iron and materials that contain iron. magnets attract or repel other magnets. In addition‚ one part of a magnet will always point north when allowed to swing freely. Magnetic Poles: Magnetic Pole: any magnet with 2 ends‚ each is called a magnetic pole. Magnetic poles that are unlike attract each other and magnetic poles that are alike repel each other. Magnetic

Erving Goffman`s Presentation of Self in Everyday Life provides an interesting slant on communication. The approach Goffman employs is "dramaturgical approach" which aids him in presenting his ideas on viewing the self within the social context (1959‚ 240). Interaction is called "performance‚" influenced

Electricity was first researched by Thales of Miletos around 600BC. He conducted a few experiments on static electricity in which he believed that friction made amber become magnetized. Other than the fact that people knew that eels produced electric shocks‚ electricity was little more than an intellectual curiosity for over 2000 years. Until 1600 when someone from England discovered the lodestone effect when amber with static would attract small objects towards it. In the 18th century‚ Benjamin

Lecture Notes: Basic Electricity Fall 2011 This course module introduces the basic physical models by which we explain the flow of electricity. The Bohr model of an atom – a nucleus surrounded by shells of electrons traveling in discrete orbits – is presented. Electrical current is described as a flow of electrons. Ohm’s law – the relationship between voltage‚ current and electrical resistance – is introduced. Learning Objectives Understanding the basic principles of electricity is a foundational

How is geometry used in everyday life? When you’re studying a subject‚ the science of lines and angles can seem like nothing more than a dull exercise in formulas and predictability. In reality‚ geometry is at work everywhere you go. Whether you’re aware of it or not‚ geometry quite literally shapes our lives. An Ancient Science‚ how long has geometry been around? To answer that question‚ let’s take a look at where geometry gets its name. Geometry is derived from the Greek words for Earth (Geo)

Erving Goffman’s The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life provides a detailed description and analysis of process and meaning in everyday interaction. Goffman writes from a symbolic interactionist perspective‚ emphasizing a qualitative analysis of the components of the interactive process. Through a sociological analysis he explores the details of individual identity‚ group relations‚ and the movement and interactive meaning of information. Goffman’s perspective provides insight into the nature
