What inventions hastened the development of electricity?

Answer 1

Electricity was always there in nature. It became known to man when the greeks found out that if you rub amber with silk it could attract tiny pieces of hair or paper.

Later Benjamin Franklin discovered that lightning is actually electricity and that it flows through metal easily. Scientists used electrolytes to produce electricities which led to the discovery of cells and batteries. This was used to produce DC. Then burning of fossil fuels led to enormous production of electricity(DC).

Edison discovered the many things known to man and revolutionized DC electricity. In that century Oersted discovered the connection of electricity and magnetism and Faraday postulated his laws about electromagnetism. It was Tesla who invented the dynamo that produced AC which challenged Edison's line of work.

(To be frank with you i think that Tesla should be considered as the father of inventions and not Edison.)

Tesla also devised a machine called Tesla Coil which had the potential to conduct electricity to the lights and other electronics via the air. He used the concept of radio waves(which are also electromagnetic waves). He even used this technology to produce a Mass Scale Tesla Coil which produce so violent electricity that it destroyed a huge plot of land. This came to be known as the Death Ray. But it is a marvelous invention.
