Edison and the invention of the incandescent light bulb
Thomas Edison focused on inventing an inexpensive and safe electric light bulb to replace gas lighting in 1878. After many experiments with different filament materials like platinum, he returned to using a carbon filament. The first carbon filament bulb lasted over 13 hours. Edison continued improving the design and was granted a patent for an electric lamp using a carbon filament in 1880. A few months later, Edison's team discovered that a carbonized bamboo filament could last over 1,200 hours, helping make the light bulb practical for widespread commercial use.
Electricity
Electricity was discovered in ancient Greece around 600 BC by Thales of Miletus, who observed that amber attracted some objects when rubbed. The first application for electricity in the 19th century was using it for everyday life through machines powered by steam, water wheels, horses, and people. One of the first electric machines built was the lightbulb, invented in 1879 by Thomas Edison. The lightbulb used a carbon filament inside a glass bulb to produce light through an electrical current without combustion.
Light bulbs
Humphrey Davy created the first electric light in 1800 using an arc lamp with wires connected to a battery and charcoal. However, this early design was not practical for home use due to its high power needs. Thomas Edison later developed the incandescent light bulb in 1879 using a carbon filament inside an oxygen-free glass bulb, which could last over 40 hours. Over the decades, light bulbs were improved through new materials and designs like fluorescent lights and LEDs to increase efficiency and capacity.
Invention power point
Thomas Edison, born in 1847 in Ohio, was not the first to invent the light bulb but greatly improved its design and longevity, inventing in 1879 a practical bulb that lasted up to 1,500 hours. Without Edison's breakthrough, modern technologies like televisions and computers would not exist as his light bulb invention enabled electricity and lit the way for further innovations.
Thomas edison project
Thomas Edison invented the light bulb in October 1879. He worked with his team to develop a long-lasting light bulb, trying over 1,500 materials before settling on one with a carbon filament that lasted nearly 200 hours. While incandescent bulbs are inefficient, converting only 4-6% of power to visible light, they remain widely used due to their low cost and ease of incorporation into electrical systems.
Edison's bright idea
Thomas Edison was an American inventor born in 1847 in Ohio. He showed an early curiosity and interest in science, but struggled in traditional school. His mother allowed him to set up a home laboratory to nurture his interests. After many experiments, in 1879 Edison invented the incandescent light bulb using a carbonized cotton filament that lasted for over two days, revolutionizing lighting. Throughout his life he patented over 1,000 inventions, but the light bulb had the biggest impact and remains one of his most famous inventions, changing how people lived and worked.

The Telephone by 4gk
Telephones allow for communication over long distances by transmitting sound through wires or wireless signals. The modern telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876, though others had attempted similar devices. Telephones save time when quick communication is needed compared to sending letters. They work by transmitting electric signals through circuit boards and wires when numbers are dialed on the keypad to connect a call between handsets.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
