The Invention Of A Handheld Electric Mixer

People were so full of curiosity on how the light bulb worked. It led to everybody wanted electricity in their homes, and it began to evolve over time to what we have in this time.

In The Great Gatsby, By F. Scott Fitzgerald, household appliances were presented in the book. Gatsby was throwing a party at his house. To prepare for the party, he orders five crates of oranges and lemon every Friday from a fruiterer in New York. He has a machine that could juice 200 oranges in thirty minutes (Fitzgerald 39). This machine that Gatsby used was called the Magic Maid Mixer with a juicer

In the early 1860’s, new inventions and technology in the United States would completely evolve during the Civil War. One of the several technological advances at this time was the telegraph and it changed the outcome of not only the war but the future, by providing faster communication between the President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln and his Union Generals. This essential apparatus was constructed by Samuel Morse and Lincoln was the first president to communicate efficiently to his generals. More importantly, this device increased the Union’s chances of winning the war since the Confederates lacked the technology that allowed information to transmit to their own troops.

Other popular kitchen appliances of the 1980s included food processors and blenders, which also made cooking quicker and easier.

Franklin had been studying electricity and that is how he became a scientist. So he decided it go out in a thunderstorm one day, with a kite. Then he tied a key to the end of it and flew the kite. Then thunder boom boom lightning strike strikes it hits the kite and that caused electricity!!!!! Which is invented by Benjamin Franklin, who became a scientist. As a scientist he also created Franklin the lighting rod. He also invented the stove which we use today, but VERY different models. Benjamin had some more great invention like the bifocals, armonica and more. Bifocal means a pair of eyeglasses having lenses with two parts with different focal lengths. Armonica is the sound of wet fingers on the lens of glass that lead to his own musical invention called the armonica

Most of the time we go through our lives daily on a set routine: Wake up, go to school/work, come home, have some possible leisure time, then go to bed and get ready for the next day. However, how many times have you ever just looked around at the world we live in today and thought about the amount of items we as humans have created to better our lives. Probably not much because these things that make our lives easier cause us to become trapped inside the world of technology and ultimately, the things that were designed to assist our lives, create more problems.

The 1920’s were a time period full of cultural evolution, political uprisings, technological advancements, and new ideologies being brought to the table. Welfare Capitalism, Feminism, and Politics were

1846, ice cream started to develop and evolve. Just after this time, it quickly spread and the first hand-cranked ice cream freezer was invented in the US at this time.

Born in 1911, Robert Falchion grew up through the shadow of the Great War. He attended Juningberry High before studying electrical engineering at Manchester polytechnic, graduating in 1931. He married his high-school sweetheart, Frida, in 1932, and in the summer of that year they had their first son, Robert Jr., named for his father. Following his graduation from University, and marriage to his dear wife, Robert started work as a researcher for Jameson Electric. It was at Jameson that Robert devised ways of using electricity to keep things both hot and cold; technology which go on to provide the basis for what we now know as refrigerators and microwaves. Following the moderate acclaim brought about by these inventions, in 1935, Robert was head-hunted by the state-owned Soviet power company, Atomovisk, and offered the opportunity to become the head of their Research and Development department. In order to better provide for his young family, Robert accepted the job offer and he, Frida and Robert Jr. moved to the small and idyllic Russian town of Obninsk, overlooked by the Atomovisk facility.

Technology is constantly changing and evolving. Technology is something that we use in everyday life and is always being modified. In the 1800s and the early 1900s people could not rely on the internet to help them with their daily tasks. When children were in school they were not capable of doing their homework online. The school children would usually have to walk to school, even though it may be several miles away. The car was an invention that changed society. The first car was invented in 1886. The first modern use of the car didn’t occur until the early 1900s. This invention helped people get to place to place in less than half the time it would take if you were required to walk. Today we have made cars to be faster, more durable, and they also have accessories such as navigation settings. This invention inspired other people to think of ways that we could get around. In 1903 the first plane was invented. The plane is a more advanced way to travel around. Although today it is generally used for travelling long distances. Now we have commercial airlines that can carry around one hundred people. Planes have had modifications and are now much safer.

To begin the hovercraft was dreamt up by inventor Christopher Cockrell of England. Cockrell put the idea to paper in 1955 and originally tested his idea using an empty KiteKat cat food tin inside a coffee tin, an industrial air blower and a pair of kitchen scales. After creating a full scale model they were produced and used for military purposes originally by England and later by the U.S. Navy in the Vietnam War. Another invention of the 1950’s was the microwave, the microwave was first sold for consumer use in 1954 and sold by the Raytheon Co. The microwave helped families make quick meals and started a wave of T.V. dinners in the 1960’s when the microwave was a household essential. Although the microwave soon became a household item it was not always so popular, many feared that microwaves were unsafe. Even though people feared about the microwave’s safety the microwave soon became a big part of American food culture from the 1950’s until

In 1821, Michael Faraday created the electric motor, which led the way for other inventions like the light bulb, invented by Thomas Edison in 1879 and the refrigerator, invented by Jacob Perkins in 1834. The light bulb helped to provide a stable source of lighting during the night, and helped to shift from the working schedule of dawn to dusk, and in turn get more things done. It also helped to create a nightlife, where there was for the first time of entertainment in the evening and during the night, with theatres now being able to perform at times other than during the day. One example of this is the Savoy Theatre in London, England, shown in Appendix A. The Savoy theatre in 1881 was the first public building in the world to be entirely lit with electricity. The refrigerator is another example of the importance of electricity, as it allowed food to be kept for a lot longer than before. Meats could now be kept for weeks, which was a lot easier than the 24 hours of before. These are examples of the importance of electricity, and how important entrepreneurs and inventors were to the progression of the Industrial

Raytheon invented the Magnetron, which gave off warmth. Many people did not find a use for the Magnetron until Spencer by accident. The Magnetron was on one day at Spencer's job and Spencer was near it, then suddenly Spencer noticed that the chocolate bar in his pocket had liquified. He then had an idea then he asked for popcorn kernels. He put the kernels in his hand near the Magnetron. Minutes after, Spencer held the discovery of the microwave popcorn in his hands, and what would be later made into the microwave.

In 1831, scientist Michael Farday discovered the first form of electricity. He found that when a magnet moved inside a copper coil it created what is known as an electric current. This invention is known as a turbine generator. Even today, in full sized power stations this simple invention is still used and works very effectively. These power stations create mass amounts of energy to turn the turbines. Most of the time the energy is made from the heat, for example when coal is burned. More environmentally friendly power stations use wind or flowing water to turn these turbines. This is known as renewable energy because it will not run out, unlike when oil and coal are used.(3)

Emerson Electric Company was founded in 1890 as a manufacturer of motors and fans. Today, Emerson is a major domestic electrical
