How does technology make the world bigger?
Surely, your question asks how technology makes the world bigger in the metaphorical sense. Physically, this good old planet hasn't changed its size recently. So, in the metaphorical sense, technology makes the word both bigger and smaller at the same time: Technology makes the world bigger because it enables us to experience far-away corners of the earth. We buy foods from half-way around the globe, we hear news from all over the world, we travel long distances - all that enriches our perception of the world, thus making it bigger. A typical person living in a rural village in 1909 had very little knowledge of the world outside the village and its immediate neighborhood. This person may never have seen, or even heard of, a pineapple or the Rocky Mountains. A typical person living in the same village in 2009 will know of a much larger world, due to the technological advances made in transportation and communication. At the same time, technology is often commented to make the world a smaller place. The advances made to transportation and communication in particular make remote parts of the world far more easily accessible now than they were a century ago. The fact that we can now easily buy pinapples or travel to the Rocky Mountains makes the world larger (by enrichment), but also smaller at the same time. Back in 1909, a journey to the Rocky Mountains or to Singapore would have been a major endevour, taking days or even weeks, while we hardly notice the (relatively) short time to travel there in person, or metaphysically via the Internet.
What is an electric current made of?
It is made out of small particals, smaller than atoms called electrons.
What is the definition of symbol strobe in digital communication book?
the sample on which the symbol decision is made
How can computer chips be made smaller?
A computer chip is an assembly of a large number of individual transistors, which in turn are arranged as switches. The driving configuration of a switch consists of resistors and capacitors. In order to make these components smaller, they may be made to operate at a higher frequency. Since the actual quantity of energy used to change the state of a switch becomes smaller, this also has the serendipitous outcome of needing less cooling per switch. This necessarily demands that the manufacturing process become capable of even smaller and more dense layout.
Why have computers got smaller?
Newer electronics devices introduced in each computer generation (and thereby defining the generation) are more compact and consume less power than the older electronic devices, enabling the size of both the computer's electronic hardware and cooling system to be reduced significantly.
What advances were made in transportation and communication in the 1920s and 1930s?
Automobiles and airplanes were made for transportation. Radios and movies came out as well, thus improving communication.

What made the world a smaller and helped cultures to mix?
The oceans became highways. -Apex
What made the world smaller and helped cultures mix?
Mainly the international trade that increased when the oceans connected distant lands for travel, conquest, and trade. Advances in transportation and communication, industrial development, and the growth of global trade have all contributed to making world economies and cultures more interdependent. In modern times, the internet has been a new and powerful method of intercultural communication.
What working model can you prepare for science fair on the topic transportation and communication help its urgent?
for any science fair model , the simplicity and effectiveness of presentation of its concept is important , so transportation system such as railways are best example to made and along the rails we can transmit contraol or communication cables . so we can made 1)railways with communication cables 2)we can make road transport system also as a model
What made the world smaller in 1900?
Winds and stroms
Is the improvements in transportation and communication would the original articles of confederation work for all 50 states today?
The Articles of Confederation would not work at all today, even with improvements in transportation and communication. The major reason for this is that the Articles of Confederation made for a very weak national government.
What was Thomas Watson's invention importance?
he made communication easier for the world.
How has the automobile changed the world?
Automobiles have made it easier and faster to travel, in terms of transportation.
How did airplanes change transportation?
Airplanes made transportation easier. They have made transportation faster. The disadvantage is that they are costly.
How did airplanes change peoples lives?
You could get where you wanted to go faster and it was easier than the other transportation they had for going to far away places.
What made transpotation and communitcation difficuly in ancient Greece?
In Ancient Greece, geography was a significant barrier to transportation and communication, especially for trading and military purposes. The waters of the Aegean Sea were one barrier. The many distinct mountain ranges and hills made up yet another barrier.
