impact on the society, i think they are looking at stuff like better power saving as it uses transformer and therefore increase productivity...

"assess the effects of the development of AC generators on society and the environment"
you can pretty much write anything on this dot point ay? hehe any BS will do!

- life became easy...
- Industries able to produce more and quickly overtime --> less labour
- more choice of entertainment.. ?
- global warming , fossil fuels

 

[haz_it_all]

<addition to sukiyaki>
include stuff like:
- better technology
- power stations can be located away from population because of the use AC which allows 2 be transformed

disadvantages:
- hydro plants require dams to be built which cause environmental & ecosystem worries within society

 

[+:: $i[Q]u3 ::+]

ac generators meant that power grids could be built across the nation, and that electricity could become one of the most convenient, cheap, accessible and flexible forms of energy available. The AC meant that not a lot of energy was lost in transmission lines due to resistance in wires (as with DC) and so electricity could be transported to remote areas such as rural communities.

provision of electricity has its own benefits/drawbacks...
(ref other dotpoint)

in questions u will be asked to look at both, effects(advantages/disadvanteges) on society AND the environment.

SOCIETY
+everything electrically mechanised
+lives made easier

-increase in unemployment

ENVIRONMENT
-burnign of fossil fuels
-pollution
-greenhouse effect
-running out of those fossil fuels
