15 INVENTIONS THAT CHANGE THE WORLD SUBMITTED BY: DIWATA‚ MICHAEL PAULO E. CH21FA1- BS CHE CHEM002-ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING SUBMITTED TO: ENGR. EFREN CHAVEZ LIGHTNING ROD American statesman and inventor Benjamin Franklin was particularly interested in electricity and set up a small laboratory in his house to investigate its properties. His interest soon switched from electricity to lightning after he noticed the similarities between the two. One stormy night‚ he conducted a life-threatening

Where possible‚ compare Massey’s strategy with those of its leading competitors. The company had three kinds of products‚ farm & industrial machinery as well as diesel engines. For the farm and industrial machinery‚ North American and the United Kingdom were the largest markets accounting for 81.3% of capacity. For diesel engines‚ the UK accounted for 76.7%. For having success in this kind of business R&D investment was crucial‚ this to be able to offer new technologies as well a build up partnerships

same year. On his father’s death he inherited an estate valued at £100‚000‚ somewhere between $6 and $30 million dollars today. His youngest son‚ Henry Prevost Babbage‚ later attended Harvard and created demonstration pieces for the purpose of an engine based off of his father’s design. Babbage was a prolific inventor‚ mathematician‚ scientist‚ reforming critic with reference to the scientific establishment and political economist. He pioneered lighthouse signalling‚ invented the ophthalmoscope

Each division has its own vice president that reports directly to Mr. Harnett. For the most part‚ each division will be able to operate independently‚ thus‚ each division will have its own Accounting‚ Engineering‚ and Manufacturing departments.

developed by James Watt‚ the steam engine‚ not only made it possible to transport crops and food to different places‚ but made it possible for people to get fresh foods because they were transported much quicker. Another helpful invention was the seed drill‚ invented by Jethro Tull. Also‚ factories were now able to process and package meat and dairy products that could then be sent out all across the country‚ which fed the demand of a constantly

achieve extremely high output pressures greater than 10‚000 psi (69 MPa). Many large snow-making operations (like ski resorts) use this type of compressor. They are also used in internal combustion engines as superchargers and turbochargers. Centrifugal compressors are used in small gas turbine engines or as the final compression stage of medium sized gas Diagonal or mixed-flow compressors Diagonal or mixed-flow compressors are similar to centrifugal compressors‚ but have a radial and axial velocity

growth. Urbanization overall was a positive thing. Another positive effect of the Industrial Revolution was industrial production. This was the production of cotton‚ steam engines‚ and railroads. These were all great things. Cotton being processed in factories let it be a faster process and lessened slavery. Steam engines and railroads were incredible because it gave a fast and easier way to transport good‚ by land and water. It also increased jobs because people had to run and work these machines

dominant role. Everything depended upon the manual labour. Men had to work everywhere. Naturally things were produced at a very slow pace. The use of steam in driving the machines brought about a revolution in the industries. The discovery of steam-engine made it possible to turn the wheels of mighty machines with the help of steam-power. The discovery of electricity as a source of power proved all the more useful. It came as a sort of god-sent to producers. The industrial revolution progressed by
