There were several; however, I will list the top five. 1. Telephone - Alexander Bell (1876) 2. Phonograph - Thomas Edison (1877) 3. Light bulb - Both Thomas Edison & Joseph Swan (1879) 4. Motorized automobile - Gotlieb Daimler (1885) 5. Radio - Guglielmo Marconi (1895)

What year did William Crookes test John Dalton's theory with a cathode ray tube?

1870


Who invented the cathode ray tube in the 1970s?

William Crookes invented cathode ray tubes.The earliest version of the CRT was invented by the German physicist Ferdinand Braun in 1897.


Who invented faucet?

The faucet use to be called a valve. The valve has been a way of shutting on/off water flow all the way back to the Egyptians, Romans and Greeks. The Romans helped to better the system by running water into buildings. In 1870 JH Davis got a patent on a globe valve.


Who invented Gas turbine engines?

Charles F. Brush invented the wind turbine in 1888. The wind turbine is an excellent form of alternative energy that many say that Charles F. Bush is a huge contributor in.


How do you calculate the power consumption of 3 phase 2.2 kW induction motor drawing 3A current at 400 volts and 0.9 PF?

The power consumed can be calculated directly from the current draw, voltage, and power factor: (3A) x (400v line to line) x (sqrt(3)) x (.9pf) = 1.87kW. This would be a reasonable value for a 3hp motor that is not running under full load (the motor may be slightly over-sized for this application). The size of the motor is irrelevant to this calculation, although it shows that it is running at ~85% of its capability.Another AnswerSince a motor is a balanced load, we use the following equation to find its input power:power = 1.732 x line voltage x line current x power factor.So, in your example,power = 1.732 x 400 x 3 x 0.9 = 1870 WObviously, it cannot be delivering 2200 W when its input is just 1870 W. However, to determine its output power you will need to determine its efficiency at that input.
