Try as he might, Thomas Edison was unable to create an effective way to take electricity to people's homes because<u> D. He </u><u>insisted </u><u>on using </u><u>direct current, </u><u>which could only </u><u>travel </u><u>a </u><u>short distance.</u>

Thomas Edison:

  • Tried to transmit electricity directly to people's homes
  • Used only direct current to transmit power

Even though direct current supported the lights the day more than alternate current, it could not travel very far which meant that the supply plant had to be located near people.

This couldn't happen for the plant at the Niagara falls so we can conclude that Edison was unable to bring electricity to people's homes from there.

A.  The war effort required American civilians to contribute.

Total war means the country fighting needs not just all aspects of military personnel but also the dedication of civilians.

In World War II, American civilians were asked to participate in the war effort by giving up items needed for the war. Rationing of major items needed for the war made sure there was food and supplies for the soldiers. Civilians were also asked to purchase bonds to help fund the war effort. Factories were transformed into war machines and people were put to work including women. The entire society became focused on the war.
