Tesla and the Electronic World Guglielmo Marconi and Nikola Tesla both contributed to the development of wireless communication. Marconi‚ an Italian working in Europe‚ and Tesla‚ a Serbian born immigrant to the U.S.‚ battled for the right to hold patents for wireless communication technology of similar design. The privilege of being the name to bare mark in the history books and be called the one who brought us wireless communication was at stake. “Mr. Marconi is a donkey” said Nikola Tesla (Pickover)

Commercial Cells Galvanic Cell A Galvanic cell is also known as a Voltaic cell. It was named after Luigi Galvani and Alessandro Volta. A galvanic cell is capable of producing an electric current from a redox reaction that occurs within it and consists of two half cells. Each half cell consists of an electrode and electrolyte and a salt bridge. In a galvanic cell one metal can undergo reduction and the other oxidation. A typical galvanic cell is based on the spontaneous redox reaction: Net Ionic

What makes a monster? Is monstrosity purely physical or is monstrosity a term used to denote immoral behavior? However one chooses to answer this question one must inevitably speak about the “monster” in relation to other beings in a given society at a particular time. In this essay I attempt to not only capture the “monster” as an engineered body‚ but also highlight the connection and possible tension between scientific knowledge and the morality of scientists and society during the Scientific Revolution/Enlightenment

A Vault (French voûte‚ from Italian volta) is an architectural term for an arched form used to provide a space with a ceiling or roof.[1] The parts of a vault exert lateral thrust that require a counter resistance. When vaults are built underground‚ the ground gives all the resistance required. However‚ when the vault is built above ground‚ various replacements are employed to supply the needed resistance. An example is the thicker walls used in the case of barrel or continuous vaults. Buttresses

The development of the Volta River Basin was proposed in 1949‚ but because there was not enough money‚ the American company Valco loaned money to Ghana so that the dam could be constructed. Kwame Nkrumah adopted the Volta River hydropower project.

Real progress of storing electric current was made again in the late 18thcentury‚ when Alessandro Volta (after whom volt was named) shelved discs soaked in salt solution between zinc and copper plates to create electric current. This formed the base for the battery technology. Present The first wet cell batteries (like automobile) and dry cell
