The relation between the science of physics and the practical things that come from it is an interesting subject. Sometimes, the knowledge of the scientific basis foe an invention comes after the invention has been made and improved. When James Watt built his steam engine in 1769, nothing was known about how heat was changed into mechanical energy. The great practical importance of Watt’s engine, however, encouraged scientists to look into this matter, with the result that the new science of thermodynamics was formed.

After the basic laws of thermodynamics were discovered, great improvement in the steam became possible, as such later developments as the steam turbine, the gasoline engine, the diesel engine, and the jet engine. Most of the great advances in the understanding of nature and properties of sound waves came after Edison had invented the phonograph and Bell had invented the telephone. As a result, the modern phonograph and the telephone are not very much like the original models. So we see how science leads new inventions and these new inventions encourage scientists to explore the bases for them.
