State a brief history or discovery that brought about the invention or discovery of the
things stated below. State their contribution in our scientific development.
A. Wheeled Vehicle

Wheels were invented circa 3,500 B.C., and rapidly spread across the Eastern

Hemisphere. Wheels are the archetype of a primitive, caveman-level technology. But in
fact, they're so ingenious that it took until 3500 B.C. for someone to invent them, The
wheel is often described as the most important invention of all time it had a fundamental
impact on transport and later on agriculture and industry.
B. Internet

The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with the creation of
ARPANET, or the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. Originally funded by
the U.S. Department of Defense, ARPANET used packet switching to allow multiple
computers to communicate on a single network, ARPANET adopted TCP/IP on
January 1, 1983, and from there researchers began to assemble the “network
of networks” that became the modern Internet. The online world then took on a
more recognizable form in 1990, when computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee
invented the World Wide Web. While it’s often confused with the internet itself,
the web is actually just the most common means of accessing data online in
the form of websites and hyperlinks. The web helped popularize the internet
among the public, and served as a crucial step in Developing the vast trove of
information that most of us now access on a daily basis.
C. Telephone

Alexander Graham Bell was awarded the first U.S. patent for the invention of
the telephone in 1876. Elisha Gray, 1876, designed a telephone using a water
microphone in Highland Park, Illinois. Thomas Edison invented the carbon microphone
which produced a strong telephone signal, Alexander Graham Bell was a Scottish-born
scientist and inventor best known for inventing the first working telephone in 1876 and
founding the Bell Telephone Company in 1877. Bell's success came through his
experiments in sound and the furthering of his family's interest in assisting the deaf with
communication.
D. Clock

The Dutch polymath and horologist Christiaan Huygens, the inventor of first precision
timekeeping devices (pendulum clock and spiral-hairspring watch). From its invention in
1656 by Christiaan Huygens until the 1930s, the pendulum clock was the world's most
precise timekeeper, accounting for its widespread use, Technology Developed to include
some moving parts, increasing accuracy. Around the 14th century in Italy,
large clock towers appeared that held the first mechanized clocks. The result of
this invention was a new regulation in the daily life of society. A person's day could be
measured from start to finish.
E. Guns

The first successful rapid-fire firearm is the Gatling gun, invented by Richard Jordan
Gatling and fielded by the Union forces during the American Civil War in the 1860s. It is
operated by a hand crank and rotates multiple barrels, During a long period of
time, guns have changed the world considerably: they help to defend oneself; they make
it easier and faster to kill and injure people, very often, innocent people; and they
obliterate the border between life and death, for those, who cannot control own actions,
thoughts, and movements.
F. Electricity

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), an American scientist, contributed discoveries and

theories on electricity. His famous kite experiment showed lightning as
an electrical phenomenon. He was the first to label positive and negative charges,
Franklin discovered positive and negative electric charges by conducting experiments
with electricity using the Leyden Jar. He proved his theory by performing his kite
experiment during a storm. When the stormed passed over his kite the negative charges
passed into his kite, to the key and to the Leyden jar.
G. Printing Press

It was invented by German Johannes Gutenberg around 1440. By 1500 there were

printing presses throughout Europe. The printing press allowed for information to be
distributed to a wide audience. This helped to spread new scientific discoveries as well,
allowing scientists to share their works and learn from each other.
H. Paper

Historical sources credit the invention of paper to Cai Lun, a dignitary serving the
imperial Chinese court who, in AD 105, began producing sheets of paper from scraps of
old rags, tree bark and fishing nets.
I. Telescope

In 1608, Lippershey laid claim to a device that could magnify objects three times.
His telescope had a concave eyepiece aligned with a convex objective lens. One story
goes that he got the idea for his design after observing two children in his shop holding
up two lenses that made a distant weather vane appear close.
J. Car

Karl Benz patented the three-wheeled Motor Car, known as the "Motorwagen," in 1886.
It was the first true, modern automobile. Benz also patented his own throttle system,
spark plugs, gear shifters, a water radiator, a carburetor and other fundamentals to the
automobile. Benz eventually built a car company that still exists today as the Daimler
Group.
