1871-1948, 1867-1912 Airplane invention One of the founding fathers of America, Franklin is attributed to have invented electricity Faraday the discovered electromagnetic induction, laws of electrolysis, found the fundamental relations between between light and magnetism as well as discovered a new compound of carbon and two new chlorides of carbon. He was a pioneer in the field of high-tension electricity. He invented the Tesla induction motor, the Tesla coil, a system for wireless communication as well as system that will help conduct electricity without wires. He was the first English chemist to produce a synthetic dye, mauve.
