Who is Franklin?

Benjamin Franklin was an American scientist, physicist, social activist and democrat during the bourgeois revolution. 1706 65438+ 10/7 was born in a worker's family in Boston. 17 14 entered the primary school and only studied for two years. 17 18 He 12 years old started as a printing apprentice. However, he is very yearning for science, diligent in self-study, and has mastered many foreign languages such as Italy and Spain and extensive knowledge of natural science. Thanks to genius and diligence, I finally made myself a great scientist and inventor that attracted worldwide attention.

People's daily use of electric lights, telephones, telegrams, trams, and even the invention and utilization of cutting-edge technology are inseparable from electricity. However, about 250 years ago, people knew nothing about electricity. At that time, westerners called lightning "the fire of God".

Benjamin Franklin, an outstanding American inventor, began to study the phenomenon of electricity from 1746. After repeated experiments and summary, he published the famous basic theory of electricity, Experiment and Observation of Electricity, in 175 1, which immediately caused a sensation throughout Europe. From then on, Franklin became the founder of electricity.

Franklin was born in Boston on June 65, 2007. He went to school at the age of 8, worked as an apprentice in a printing factory at the age of 12, and became a printer at the age of 17. Franklin worked hard and studied hard. His extensive interests, strong curiosity, hard study, the spirit of never giving up until the goal is reached, and his dedication to scientific thinking laid the foundation for him to become an influential scientist later.

Franklin was one of the earliest people who conducted electrical experiments in the world. He was the first person to correctly explain the nature of charge in the history of electricity. He put forward an important hypothesis in the history of electricity: electricity is an element that exists in all substances in a certain proportion under ordinary conditions. He also found that electricity can be transferred from one object to another, and the total amount of electricity remains the same in any insulator. This conclusion is the so-called law of conservation of charge in modern electricity. Franklin also explained the properties of two kinds of charges with positive and negative mathematical concepts for the first time, explained the source of electricity and its existence in matter, and explained the characteristics of some dielectrics.

1752 In July, Franklin risked his life to conduct an experiment that shocked the world by absorbing celestial electricity. The reason is that he was inspired by a lecture by a European electrical scholar. He thought, is thunder electricity? So I immediately tried to get Riley's electricity into the Leyden bottle. On a thunderstorm day, he made a kite with a square handkerchief, which was tied with a thin wire and a ribbon, and the other end was tied in a key ring. When the kite is put into the sky, lightning passes through the metal kite string to reach the key, which can charge the Leyden bottle. The experiment was successful, which proved that Franklin's theory was correct. So people say, "Franklin separated God from lightning."

Franklin was not only a great scientist, but also an outstanding politician. He participated in the drafting of the American Declaration of Independence and the American Constitution, and made great contributions to the final victory of the War of Independence.

1790 On April 7th, Franklin died in Philadelphia at the age of 84. 1900, Franklin was first elected to the American Hall of Fame.
