17. Electric Power Early Attempts Edison’s Light bulb
As the Industrial Age progressed in the late 1800s, one technology changed industry and daily life more than any other-electricity.
Scientists interested in electricity for centuries
Ben Franklin, 1700s
Michael Faraday discovered magnetism, electricity connection 1831
Dynamo powered electric motor
Swan developed primitive lightbulb, 1860
Early Attempts
First usable, practical lightbulb invented 1879
Edison’s lightbulb came through trial and error and many hours of work in lab
Other inventions:
Generators
Motors
Light sockets
Electric power plant
Edison’s Light bulb

19. Effects on Industry and Daily Life
Electric power transformed industry in Europe and the United States
Improved industry in 3 significant ways
Factories no longer had to rely on steam engines
Factories did not have to depend on waterways to power steam engines
Factories became less dependent on sunlight, increased production
Improved daily life
Cheaper, more convenient light source than gas, oil
Other electrical devices soon created

20. How did electricity change industry and daily life?

21. How did electricity change industry and daily life?
Analyze
How did electricity change industry and daily life?
Answer(s): Factories no longer needed steam engines or water sources to power them; production increased; people could light their homes and businesses more safely and effectively with electric lighting.

22. Advances in Transportation
Boats on canals, rivers best for long-distance travel, in early 1800s
With development of efficient steam engines, trains replace boats
Trains could carry heavy loads, traveled faster than watercraft
World’s first rail line, Britain 1830
3,000 miles of railroads, Eastern U.S. 1840
Steam Powered Trains
Bessemer process, forcing air through molten metal to burn out impurities, strengthen steel
Factories increased production of locomotives, tracks
Stronger steel used to build bridges
30,000 mile network of railroads linking major American cities, 1860
New railroads helped grow cities in American West
Improvements in Steel

24. Advances in Transportation
Rail technology around the world
India’s first train, 1851
First African railroad, Egypt 1852
Trans-Siberian Railroad in Russia, world’s longest, 1891
Travel and trade
Expansion of railroads increased markets
Trains moved huge loads efficiently, transportation costs declined
New products became available
Food products
Perishable foods could get to market before spoiling
Frozen beef shipped by rail from west to east
Shoppers had more food choices

25. Advances in Transportation
Steamships
Steamships changed ocean travel
Not dependent on wind, could travel through any weather
U.S. steamship service began, west around South America to east, 1849
Long distance movement of goods economically viable by 1870
Passenger travel began shortly thereafter
First attempts, Europe 1769
Daimler and Benz developed practical automobiles
Early U.S. autos too expensive
Henry Ford built first affordable cars, mass production, 1908
More roads than rail lines, 1915
The Automobile
Wilbur and Orville Wright flew first sustained powered flight, 1903
Developed airplane over four years
Glider-powered with internal combustion engine
Paved the way for commercial, military airplanes
The Airplane

26. Identifying Cause and Effect
What effect did advances in transportation have on daily life?

27. Identifying Cause and Effect
What effect did advances in transportation have on daily life?
Answer(s): better and faster means of transportation; made it possible to get more goods to market at lower costs, increasing consumers' choices

28. “What hath God wrought?”
Advances in Communication
Early 1800s Communication
Much slower than today
Boat, messenger on foot, horseback or carriage
Entrepreneurs, inventors searched for faster ways
The Telegraph
Telegraph invented, 1837
Samuel Morse also invented a “language” for those messages
Messages transmitted as electrical pulses
“What hath God wrought?”
First telegraph message from Morse, 1844
Telegraph wires between Washington D.C., Baltimore
New era in communication
Growth of Telegraph
Much of country linked by 1861
Telegraph cable to Europe, 1866; to India, 1870
Globalized personal and business communication

29. Advances in Communication
The Telephone
Alexander Graham Bell tried to create way to send multiple telegraph messages at same time
Invented telephone 1876
“Mr. Watson, come here, I want to see you.”
Bell sent message to assistant from one room to another
Watson heard message through receiver
Demand for telephones
Increased during 1880s
Thousands of miles of phone lines laid across U.S.
Almost 1.5 million phones installed by 1900

30. Advances in Communication
The Radio and Phonograph
Telephone technology limited by length of wires
New wireless technology
Guglielmo Marconi built wireless telegraph, 1895
Radio first used as communication device for ships
Later used for entertainment and news
Sound recording technology
Thomas Edison invented phonograph
Music became available to everyone
