Let's learn history first.
Hi readers ... before the story of “Suddenly So Ratu” continues. We learn history first, why here othors are so bold to say there is electricity, lights, phones, trains, newspapers and stocks, even though the year of the author's story is 1899.
The first thing we discussed was the electricity problem. Whether 1899 already has electricity and lights, let's find out.
Surprisingly historians say it turned out that electricity was discovered accidentally by an Italian scholar named Thales around 600 BC. It happened when the scholar rubbed amber into wool and pulled light objects around him. But at that time, Thales did not know what reaction was happening.
Then in 1733 the English scientist William Gilbert again conducted research by rubbing amber, then created electricity. The third person to study electricity was Charles du Fay in 1739. It comes from France. The result of this study is that electricity consists of negative and positive charges.
In 1752, Benjamin Franklin, an American scientist who researched electricity in the most extreme way, pointed an iron key to the sky where there was a lightning storm at that time. Lightning snatched the iron key and splashed a small fire. The spark hit the back of his hand. That's why he believed it was electricity.
In 1800, research was continued by Alessandro Volta, an Italian scientist. Volta dipped the paper in salt water, then placed zinc and copper on both ends. It turns out that these chemical reactions are capable of generating electricity. This is the beginning of the discovery of electric cells. By connecting more electric cells, Volta managed to make the battery as a source of electricity. Because of his remarkable invention, his name is immortalized in Volt units to measure the difference in electrical voltage.
In 1831, Michael Faraday discovered something else. Faraday was an early English scientist. He discovered that electricity could be created by flowing a magnet near a copper wire. It's a great invention. Almost all electrical appliances we use today are composed of magnets and copper wires, either electric generators or electric motors. An electric generator is a device that converts motion energy into electrical energy. While the electric motor is a tool that converts electrical energy into motion energy. This is the history of the discovery of electricity before being able to produce more power as it is today.
We continue on the main lighting that is the lamp. If asked who the creators of the lights all say Thomas Alva Edison. It's not really true, but it's not wrong either.
Ih what the hell it turns out, before Thomas Alva Edison found the lamp there were three previous scientists who had found the lamp.
Uh ... spasa puh? This is them.
1.In 1808, a British scientist named Warren de la Rue made incandescent lamps using platinum coils.
Unfortunately, Warren-made lights are too expensive and can not last long.
But this failure makes hope for other scientists.
2.The failure of Warren de la Rue, made a glimmer of hope for other scientists. W. R. Glove is a scientist who continues the manufacture of incandescent lamps.
In 1840, Glove invented an incandescent lamp with a platinum coil, an incandescent lamp made by Glove turned out to be practical for an electric lamp.
3.Another scientist, Sir J. W. Swan continued Glove's research in 1860.
This time Swan created an incandescent lamp with carbonized paper and processing cotton fibers with sulfuric acid.
Apparently, Swan's lamp is still not perfect. Swan's lamp creation has a disadvantage, because it makes the light bulb blackened.
4.Thomas Alva Edison developed and patented the lamp in 1879.
It was Edison's lamp, which became the basis of the modern lamp.
But, it is not that easy yes, the lights made by Thomas Alva Edison occur.
Where first? Newspaper or telegraph or even telephone?
And the answer is.
What about the newspaper? The first newspaper in the world, Acta Diurna, appeared in the Roman Empire in 59 BC. And the one who wrote it was Emperor Julio Cesar with his own handwriting.
Then the development of modern newspapers occurred when Johann Carolus wanted to increase his income so he had the idea to write and print writing that contained some news at that time and finally his writing was published in 1605 so that from that's where the first Relation newspaper was born.
The telegraph was invented by Samuel Finley Breese Morse, an American researcher in 1837 and in England in the same year by a physicist Sir Charles Wheatstone in collaboration with an English engineer Sir William F. Cookies
Early telephone developments.
• in 1871, Natonio Meucci patented his invention called the Sound Telegraph. His invention made it possible to communicate in the form of a voice between two people using a cable intermediary.
• in 1875, telecommunications company The Bell obtained a patent for Meucci's invention called transmitters and Receivers for Electric Telegraphs. The system uses multiple vibrations of steel to provide a pause in the circuit.
• in 1876, Bell's company patented Improvement in Telegraphy. This system provides a method for transmitting sound telegraphically.
• 1877, The Charles Williams Shop is the place where the first telephone was made with the supervision of Watson, who later became the research and development department of the telecommunications company. Alexander Graham Bell continued to monitor the productivity of the company so that by the end of the year as many as three hundred phones could be used. Bell's company has also patented an electro-magnetic phone that uses a permanent magnet, an iron diaphragm, and a call ring.
• 1878, a replacement board was manually invented allowing many telephones to be connected via an exchange channel. Vail, Bell's company has 10,000 usable phones.
• 1880, the first metallic circuit is installed. This circuit is a renewal from one-wire circuit to two-wire. These updates help reduce the distractions often felt with the use of one-wire pathways.
• 1891 - Telephone with dial number was first used. The phone will work by automatically connecting the caller to the operator by pressing the dial number based on the instructions.
• 1915 Telephones with wireless systems were first used. This system makes it easy for phone users to connect with each other across countries.
The oldest railway station in the world The oldest railway station in the world is Liverpool Road station located in Manchester, England. Built in 1830, it is one of the few surviving major line stations in the world.
The oldest stock exchange in the world is the Amsterdam Stock Exchange aka the Dutch Stock Exchange. It was founded in 1602 by the Dutch East Indies Trade Federation or Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC)
So how do readers ... already understand about the early history of everything?
