I will talk about and explain how these four inventions: the microphone, the typewriter, the braille reading system, and the sewing machine helped make life easier. The microphone is a device that amplifies sound.  When the sound waves enter the microphone, it strikes a magnet causing the magnet to vibrate.  Which in turn amplifies theContinue reading “Week 5 Inventions”

I will summarize and explain how these inventions have made life easier: the Combine Harvester, the Solar Compass, the Propeller, and the Mechanical Computer.   The Combine Harvester is a really big and bulky machine that requires about eighteen horses to pull it.  The Combine Harvester combines several stages of the harvesting of the wheat.  FirstContinue reading “Week 7 Inventions”

This week I learned about the Platform Scale, the Railroad T-Rail, the Multi-Coil Magnet, and the Mechanical Reaper. The Platform Scale is a scale that measures how heavy an object is.  There is a weight attached to the Platform Scale when an object is placed on the platform one must balance it out, once itContinue reading “Week 6 Inventions”

Portland cement, electromagnets, the passenger rail, and matches are all inventions I learned this week.  I will explain how all of these inventions have changed history .   Portland cement works as a binder in concrete.  Portland cement is usually mixed with sand and water to form concrete.  Cement is very helpful because concrete would notContinue reading “Week 4 Inventions”

I learned about four inventions this week: the pencil, the stethoscope, the tunneling shield, and paved roads. The pencil is one of the most helpful and simplest inventions.  I learned that it is actually graphite, not lead, in the pencils.  The pencil is made by putting graphite in a wooden case.  It is used byContinue reading “Week 3 Inventions”

I learned about three inventions this week: Vapor-compression, Percussion Ignition, and the Canning Process.   Vapor-compression is what is used in refrigerators.  It works not by blowing in cold air, but by removing the heat in the air.  Then it blows it out into the room.  So without the vapor-compression theory we would not have refrigerators.  Continue reading “Week 2 Inventions”

I learned about suspension bridges, fire hydrants, and locomotives.  I will describe and explain what all these inventions did to help the world evolve.   The suspension bridge is a bridge hung by strong chains or wire.  The suspension bridge was cheap, easy to build, and super strong.  So without the suspension bridge it would beContinue reading “History II Week I Inventions”

I will write about the inventions Morphine and the Jacquard Loom.  I will also explain some of the ways inventions were invented.  Finally I will list the five components of every worldview and explain how different worldviews change what effects inventions will have on a culture.      Morphine is a painkiller made from opium.  This isContinue reading “Week 36 Inventions and Final Essay”

The Smallpox Vaccine, the Voltaic Pile, the Arc Light,and Dalton’s Atomic Theory will be explained in this essay. The Smallpox Vaccine was created by a man named Edward Jenner.  When Edward Jenner noticed that farmers who milked cows with Cowpox did not get Smallpox, he studied it farther.  So he injected the liquid from insideContinue reading “Week 35 Inventions”

The Semaphore Telegraph, the Cotton Gin, and the Hydraulic Press are the inventions I will write about.  The inventor is Eli Whitney.   The Semaphore Telegraph are towers placed six to fifteen miles away.  They then signal to other towers.  One can receive a message much faster than a horse can travel.  So if there wasContinue reading “Week 34 Inventions and Inventor”
