TOP 10 GREATEST INVENTIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD - ASSIGNMENT

Assalamualaikum everyone! Hi there. It’s been a long time we did not update our blog right? We’ve been so busy with all the tests and quizzes AND all of us is already in ‘raya mood' as you know ‘raya celebration’ is just around the corner. Therefore today, our group will share some benefit information about the greatest inventors together with their inventions that brings benefit to us.

1. TELEPHONE BY ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL.

The first invention that brings benefit to us is the telephone. The telephone is an instrument that converts voice and sound signals into electrical impulses for transmission by wire to a different location, where another telephone receives the electrical impulses and turns them back into recognizable sounds. It’s created by the greatest Alexander Graham Bell in 1875. He is the one who built the first telephone that transmitted electrically the human voice. Until now, people still use the telephone although many of them have their own hand phone already.

2. COMPUTERS BY KONRAD ZUSE. 

There are many major milestones in the history of computers, starting with 1936, when Konrad Zuse built the first freely programmable computer. With his inventions, many works can be done systematically and all data can be saved in a safe place.

3. TELEVISION BY PAUL NIPKOW. 

In 1884, Paul Nipkow sent images over wires using a rotating metal disk technology with 18 lines of resolution. Television then evolved along two paths, mechanical based on Nipkow's rotating disks, and electronic based on the cathode ray tube. American Charles Jenkins and Scotsman John Baird followed the mechanical model while Philo Farnsworth, working independently in San Francisco, and Russian émigré Vladimir Zworkin, working for Westinghouse and later RCA, advanced the electronic model. The creation of television allows people to see and discover many new things likes cooking recipe, others culture and facts about animals. this allows the director of a story to be creative when creating a story as many people watch television.

4. THE AUTOMOBILE BY NICOLAS JOSEPH CUGNOT. 

In 1769, the very first self-propelled road vehicle was invented by French mechanic, Nicolas Joseph Cugnot. However, it was a steam-powered model. In 1885, Karl Benz designed and built the world's first practical automobile to be powered by an internal-combustion engine. In 1885, Gottlieb Daimler took the internal combustion engine a step further and patented what is generally recognized as the prototype of the modern gas engine and later built the world's first four-wheeled motor vehicle. This invention gives us a chance to move from a place to the desired destination in a short time comparing when using a horse as a vehicles. Nowadays, we can see many kinds and types of vehicles on the road. All this thanks to this inventors as it made our life easier.


5. THE COTTON GIN BY ELI WHITNEY.

Eli Whitney patented the cotton gin on March 14, 1794. The cotton gin is a machine that separates seeds, hulls and other unwanted materials from cotton after it has been picked. It is very useful in the fabric industry as many of clothes are made by cotton.

6. THE CAMERA BY JOSEPH NICEPHORE NIEPCE. 

In 1814, Joseph Nicéphore Niépce created the first photographic image with a camera obscura, however, the image required eight hours of light exposure and later faded. Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre is considered the inventor of the first practical process of photography in 1837. It allows us to capture our precious moment and saved it throughout our life. Memories being captured with the camera cannot be fades and will remain as part of our life.

7. THE STEAM ENGINE BY THOMAS SAVERY.

Thomas Savery was an English military engineer and inventor who in 1698, patented the first crude steam engine. Thomas Newcomen invented the atmospheric steam engine in 1712. James Watt improved Newcomen's design and invented what is considered the first modern steam engine in 1765. This allows the invention of train by using the steam engine concept. It gives much benefit to us and the only source of power to generate a train. 

8. THE SEWING MACHINE BY BARTHELEMY THIMONNIER.

The first functional sewing machine was invented by the French tailor, Barthelemy Thimonnier, in 1830. In 1834, Walter Hunt built America's first (somewhat) successful sewing machine. Elias Howe patented the first lockstitch sewing machine in 1846. Isaac Singer invented the up-and-down motion mechanism. In 1857, James Gibbs patented the first chain-stitch single-thread sewing machine. Helen Augusta Blanchard patented the first zig-zag stitch machine in 1873. Therefore, many kinds of fashion clothes can be created and the sewing is tidier rather than using hands. Hundreds of clothes can be produced in a day and it really makes job easier and faster.

 9. THE LIGHT BULB BY THOMAS ALVA EDISON.

Contrary to popular belief, Thomas Alva Edison didn't "invent" the light bulb, but rather he improved upon a 50-year-old idea. In 1809, Humphry Davy, an English chemist, invented the first electric light. In 1878, Sir Joseph Wilson Swan, an English physicist, was the first person to invent a practical and longer-lasting electic lightbulb (13.5 hours) with a carbon fiber filament. In 1879, Thomas Alva Edison invented a carbon filament that burned for forty hours. With his great help, we can enjoy the advantages and don’t need to use candle to lighten up our night. Furthermore, it is safe to use.

10. PENICILIN BY ALEXANDER FLEMING.

Penicillin was discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928. Andrew Moyer patented the first method of industrial production of penicillin in 1948. Penicillin can inhibit, slow down and cure bacterial infections. That is a huge benefit, because it can actually save lives. Before penicillin, people would frequently die from simple infections. It was also used as a growth-promoting additive to livestock feed. It not only helps prevent or cure bacterial infections in animals, but it also helps them grow faster. 

It’s great that human brains allow people to think extraordinarily and therefore creative thinking can be developed. All this inventors and their inventions bring their own advantages in our life. Therefore, start thinking creatively and maybe one day, you might be one of those creative inventors in the history.
