Benjamin Franklin

serial number T170160 would have been made in 1973.

Benjamin Franklin was one of eight (8) delegates to attend the convention for Pennsylvania. The convention first began on May 25, 1787, and ended on September 17, 1787.

It is like a metal box with a chimney flue. Its big advantage is compared to a fireplace.

In a fireplace, a huge fraction of the heat goes up the chimney and you only get heat

if you stand in front of it. The Franklin stove can be in the center of the room and warm

the room in all directions.

It is True

YES: Benjamin Franklin, a "Founding Father" knew and met many famous people of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. (he didn't live in the 19th century, but knew some of those who became more famous than when he knew them. He knew and met all of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, including future American Presidents George Washington, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. He was also a diplomat to France, and likely met King Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette. Finally, he was instrumental in the creation of the American Constitution where he worked with future American President James Madison, and likely knew Alexander Hamilton.

In the case of most offshore yachts, yes, they can be "reefed" (furled and tied down) to reduce the amount of surface area exposed to the wind. However this does depend on the type of furling gear used, some (mostly jibs) can only be used fully unfurled (In general a solid forestay is required for a roller-reefing jib.)

Benjamin Franklin invented the Pennsylvania Fireplace also known as the Franklin Stove.

yes he did have to be carried. he was carried by prisoners.

Franklin studied electricity quite deliberately. Most people know only about his famous kite experiment, but he was actually one of the foremost electrical scientists of his day.

He became fascinated with the topic when he saw some electrical experiments performed in 1746. He acquired a Leyden jar (a device that stores static electrical charges) and began to perform experiments and formulate theories - he didn't just use electricity to play parlor tricks as most of his friends did. Franklin made an electrical battery, roasted a fowl on a spit turned by electricity, sent a current through water to ignite alcohol, and ignited gunpowder with an electrical charge.

Before Franklin, electricity was generally thought to be the result of certain types of friction, such as rubbing silk over amber. Franklin thought that in fact, electricity was spread lightly throughout most substances, and that certain types of friction were able to organize or collect it in some way. Franklin was also the first person to develop the theory of positive and negative electricity.

Franklin began to think about the possibility that lightning was in fact a huge electrical spark that consisted of the same type of electricity as that produced by rubbing amber with silk. In 1752, he performed his famous kite experiment, flying a kite up into the clouds during a storm and creating a spark when he put his knuckle near the key at the end of the kite string, proving that lightning was indeed electrical. He also stored electricity gathered from the clouds in a Leyden jar and found it able to do all the things that electricity gathered from silk and amber could do, proving that both types of electricity were really the same. Note that Franklin did not stand around waiting for the unlikely possibility that lightning would strike the kite; he simply flew it up into the clouds where he surmised an electrical charge was building, and he was correct.

Building fires caused by lightning striking a house were a tremendous problem at the time, with so many all-wooden buildings and limited means to fight the fire - a bucket brigade, not a pressure hose. Franklin began the use of lightning rods, tall pointed iron rods sticking up from the roofs of houses and carrying the electrical charge down into the ground, where it could be dispersed harmlessly. As with the kite, the rods did not need to be struck directly with lightnng to be effective; they merely had to pass through a low-lying cloud to draw off its electricity and lessen the possibility of a lightning strike.

Because he was President of the Constitutional Convention (1787).

Ben Franklin lived most of his life in an English colony and there wasn't a "United States" until the constitutional convention when he was 81 years old. So, he never had the chance to be president since the office didn't exist until he was too old. He was so crippled with gout in the constitutional convention that he had to be carried into the room with sedan chair carried by prisoners from the jail. He was the oldest delegate in the convention.

The saying "a speckled ax is best" comes from a quote from Benjamin Franklin's autobiography. A quick google search reveals several sites hosting the excerpt. Contrary to your particular paraphrasing of the quote, Franklin implied that a speckled ax was not best, and that, in fact, it represented the failure of most people to view moral perfection as too difficult to achieve, and therefore not worth pursuing wholeheartedly.

Jenna, Sometimes the term Founders is used to refer to the framers, those who actually attended the constitutional convention. Founders can also be broader term though referring to all of the leaders of the revolution and those who attended the state conventions which ratified the constitution and the first congress which wrote the Bill of Rights. In its brodest sense it can mean every citizan of the United States who supported independence from Britain or stayed in the country after the Revolutionary War. Michael Montagne The Founding Fathers and the Framers are men who contributed in different ways to make our country work in a pleasing manner. The Founding Fathers are those men such as Thomas Jefferson and John Adams who made significant contributions to the Constitution. These men worked to develop independence for our country. The Framers on the other hand were considered more as the men who helped construct or craft the Constitution. Regardless of their titles, these men achieved a lot and have a huge impact on how our country operates today.

Any atomic theory from B. Franklin.

There were two ships named after Benjamin Franklin. The first was a Liberty ship built during World War II, and the second is a research vessel, currently operated by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, which was launched in 2014.

Yes and it is called the Declaration of Independence.

None. He was a member of the Continental Congress and an ambassador to France; he was not a soldier.
