To show that lightning was indeed electrical, this scientist flew a kite during a storm, to which he had attached a key. When the kite was struck by lightning, he felt electric sparks from the key.
Albert Einstein
Isaac Newton
Leonardo da Vinci
Benjamin Franklin
My inventions made it possible for people to enjoy the benefits of electricity. My most famous invention is the lightbulb.
Alessandro Volta
Nikola Tesla
Thomas Edison
Albert Einstein
I specialise in working with electricity. I am most known for designing the AC (alternating current electric system) which we still use today. My inventions have paved the way to many of today’s essential technology such as remote controls, radio, wireless technology, etc.
