The First Form of Electricity
Italian physicist Alessandro Volta discovered that particular chemical reactions could produce electricity, and in 1800 he constructed an early electric battery that produced a steady electric current, and so he was the first person to create a steady flow of electrical charge. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alessandro_Volta -
How to Generate Electricity
The fundamental principles of electricity generation were discovered in the 1820's and early 1830's by British scientist Michael Faraday. His method, still used today, is for electricity to be generated by the movement of a loop of wire, or disc of copper between the poles of a magnet. -

The First Electric Bulb
1879 After many experiments, Thomas Edison invented an incandescent light bulb that could be used for about 40 hours without burning out.By 1880 his bulbs could be used for 1200 hours. In 1879 electric lights and lamps were used in Cleveland, Ohio as public street lights. www.thehistoricalarchive.com/happenings/57/the-history-of-electricity-a-timeline/ -
The First Washing Machine

The First Electric Calculator
the first electric calculator was small but durable. It was very smart but did not have the same type of calculations they do today. These calculators were expensive and did not get popular until 1970's. when they got popular the cost and price went down because of integrated circuits. this calculator was invented by a team at Texas Instruments revolutionized world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator -
The First E-mail
Ray Tomlinson was the first person to create the first e-mail.He picked the @ symbol from the computer keyboard to denote sending messages from one computer to another. -
How we Generate Electricity in modern day
Electricity is most often generated at a power station by electromechanical generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. -
Modern day Electricity
Modern day Electricity is more developed than electricity back in the 1800 and 1900's. Electricity now is more durable and is more commonly used now more than ever. It is used for lighting rooms, working fans and domestic appliances like using electric stoves, A/C and more.
