Kathy Loves Physics & History | How the First Electric Lamp was Created in 1705: & Light a Florescent bulb with Static Electricity @Kathy_Loves_Physics | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 18 hours ago
This is the third video in my series of "The Secret History of Electricity". My name is Kathy and I love Physics and the strange, crazy, hidden stories behind all of our electronics and electrical theories. These stories are historically and scientifically accurate but also funny and quirky as hell.
Enjoy!
By the way be careful if you light a florescent bulb with Saran Wrap as if they break it is dangerous as they have a bit of mercury in it which is poisonous.
The music in the introduction and at the end are from the fabulous Kim Nalley. Check her out at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUI2sbNV9xk

Wilhelm Rontgen discovered and named x-rays because x was unknown. But why were x-rays unknown and why did the name stick outside of Germany but not inside Germany where it was discovered? Watch the video to find out!

If you wish to read Roentgens first paper or first magazine article or a report on how people responded to the x-ray (including that story of secretly checking someones fiancee) I highly recommend the book:
Wilhelm Conrad Rntgen and the Early History of the Roentgen Rays by Otto Glasser written in 1934 and reprinted in 1991.
