Question

6. Name two ways in which Faraday's work affects your own life in the twenty-first century.​

Answer 1

He discovered electromagnetic induction

He found a way to cause an electric current, and that discovery was later applied to many devices we use today.

His inventions transformed the home, farm, and factory

. Electricity eliminated manual labor like pumping water, so that rural families no longer spent hours of their day hauling water to livestock or to the house. Automated systems for tasks like milking cows kept farmers from crippling their hands, and the threat of barn fires from knocked over oil lamps during early-morning milking decreased.
