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.

Why did king john sign the magna carta in england in 1215
sasho [114]

Answer:

In 1215, King John of England was forced to sign the Magna Carta stating that the king was not above the law of the land and protecting the rights of the people. Today, the Magna Carta is considered one of the most important documents in the history of democracy. Magna Carta was sealed by King John on 15 June 1215. The document was drawn up after his barons rebelled and forced him to agree to limitations on his power because he had demanded heavy taxes to fund his unsuccessful wars in France.
