Invention Of Telephone Essay, Research Paper

THE TELEPHONE

The invention of the telephone was a major advancement in

technology as we know it today. Without it, it would be almost

impossible to communicate with others these days.

It was created in the late 1800?s by a Scottish-born American

inventor named Alexander Gramn Bell. Bell had built an experimental

telegraph one day, and noticed it was working very strangely because

there was a loose part on it. He noticed that he could send voice

messages through it and somone could receive the message on the other

side. Therefore he created a transmitter and a receiver, and he patened

it on March 7, 1876.

The creation of the telephone changed how people communicated

a great deal, because now people could communicate faster and a lot

more easily than before. Also it was very economically friendly. The

telephone consists of about 211 parts and are very complicated to build.

But for being so complicated, they are really rather cheap and the

average person can afford one. These days you can buy a good phone for

under $30.00. Just go and take a look in the Best Buy sales ad and you

can find a good V-tech telephone for $29.00.

We owe a great deal to the inventors of the telephone because

without them it would be very hard to communicate. So we should be

very thankful for their invention.
