Electricity is awesome . Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Edison were two men who took the time to work with electricity and came up with good “inventions.”Electricity can be produced by lightning .
Ben Franklin flew a kite one day and had a key on the tail of the kite. When the key got struck by lightning,Ben Franklin captured electricity. Today we use lightning poles to capture electricity.
Thomas Alva Edison invented the kinetoscope, phonograph, and light bulb. All of these inventions had electricity in it so it worked. Thomas Alva Edison spent a great deal of time and money so it would be perfect. Thomas Alva Edison died in Oct.18,1931.
Lightning is controlled by electrons. When you see lightning it is never straight. That is because electrons hop from one cloud from another. Electrons are like little clouds that have a little charge of electricity.
Static electricity is the charge on an object that has an unequal number of protons and electrons. When you rub a balloon on your head the electrons from the balloon jump to your hair, and then it will act like a magnet.
There are many interesting things to learn about electricty. Many important people have spent many years creating inventionss using electricity.
