until this day. This invention is the Dynamite. Let me first introduce you to the inventor of the dynamite. The dynamite was invented by Swedish scientist Alfred Nobel in 1866. Let me now tell you how this dynamite affected the industrial era. It was created so it can be used in construction, mining and demolition. It was used to carve in the mountains in order to create railroads and
Beginnings of Dynamite The late 18th and the early 19th century saw the rise of the Industrial Revolution. The transcontinental railroad across the USA was being built; in Australia and California, gold-rushes were driving people crazy trying to get rich; in Seuz, a great canal was being dug through the earth; and in England, London’s famous Underground Railroad system was being built. For these engineering projects to be made possible—for all the blasting, tunneling, trenching, mining, and excavation
Dynamite has helped humanity out for years in good way and negative ways as well. We haven’t really payed much attention on how useful has been to us. Dynamite is a high explosive consisting of nitroglycerine mixed with an absorbent material and typically adding groups (from nitric acid) to toluene. At low temperatures, the mono nitrotoluenes are made, and as the reaction temperature is increased, the dynatron compounds are formed, until eventually TNT is formed. Who invented dynamite? The
“Boom goes the dynamite” is a popular saying. Some people like me wanted to go a little deeper and ask, who made dynamite and what makes dynamite go boom? Well i have the answer for both of the questions and the answers are ascanio sobrero and nitroglycerin. Our first run over is what is nitroglycerin? Nitroglycerin or nitro (NG) is a heavy, colorless, oily, Explosive liquid. Chemically, the substance is an organic nitrate compound rather than a nitro compound. Since the 1880’s, nitro or (NG)/nitroglycerin
Films “As you go through life, you will meet a lot of people that do not like the same things that you do. This is a personal preference difference, and it's normal. But anybody who says that they don't like Napoleon Dynamite is a fucking sociopath asshole who needs to be put to the sword. These people do not understand humor, and they are worthless.” - Gamboh 2016 Film is my passion. I thoroughly enjoy watching and analyzing movies - finding the pros and cons. In film there are many different
The movie Napoleon Dynamite directed by Jared Hess and released June 11, 2004 is a comedy about an awkward teen that has trouble fitting in. Napoleon (Jon Heder) the main character, lives with his grandma until she gets into an accident and his life is immediately made worse when his uncle Rico (Jon Gries) who is stuck in his high school football “superstar” days knocks on their door and is there to keep an eye on Napoleon while his grandma is getting hospitalized. Napoleon has a red afro, wears
In Napoleon Dynamite (Jared Hess, 2004), the character known as Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder) is quite a unique fellow. His quirkiness and eccentricity are what make him as a character; they are the primary traits of his personality. Keep in mind, however, that he is not the only odd character in the film, but he has his own peerless way of defining himself separate from any other character(s). This effect is achieved through certain cinematic techniques that director Jared Hess utilizes in order

Nobel discovered how to utilize the power contained within the nitroglycerin compound; however it was still a very volatile substance (Dynamite). Nobel knew there was a huge potential for such an explosive but he needed to figure out a way to make it safer. Nobel “worked 16 hours a day” to find out how to harness the power of this unstable destructive substance (Dynamite). In 1864 a large amount of nitroglycerin exploded accidentally at the factory where Nobel worked with the dangerous substance (Frost)
awarded to a total 107 laureates between the years 1901-2000, but surely now there is more. This prize would have never been awarded if wasn’t for Alfred Nobel. The irony behind everything was Alfred Nobel was actually the mastermind and distributor of dynamite. One day a newspaper company assumed that Nobel was dead and named him “The Merchant of Death”. That impacted Nobel and wanted to make a change. With his fortune he made 6 prizes; Physics,Chemistry,Medicine,Literature, Peace, and Economic Sciences
