Faraday studied the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a DC electric
current. While conducting these studies, Faraday established the basis for the
electromagnetic field concept in physics, subsequently enlarged upon by James
Maxwell. He similarly discovered electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and laws
of electrolysis. He established that magnetism could affect rays of light and that there
was an underlying relationship between the two phenomenA. His inventions of
electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology,
and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became viable for use in
technology.
As a chemist, Michael Faraday discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate
hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the Bunsen burner and the system of
oxidation numbers, and popularized terminology such as anode, cathode, electrode,
and ion.
Although Faraday received little formal education and knew little of higher
mathematics, such as calculus, he was one of the most influential scientists in
history. Historians of science refer to him as the best experimentalist in the history of
sciencE. The SI unit of capacitance, the farad, is named after him, as is the Faraday
constant, the charge on a mole of electrons (about 96,485 coulombs). Faraday’s law
of induction states that magnetic flux changing in time creates a proportional
electromotive force.
Faraday was the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal
Institution of Great Britain, a position to which he was appointed for life.
Albert Einstein kept a photograph of Faraday on his study wall alongside pictures of
Isaac Newton and James Clerk Maxwell.
Faraday was highly religious. He was a member of the Sandemanian Church, a
Christian sect founded in 1730 that demanded total faith and commitment.
Biographers have noted that a strong sense of the unity of God and nature pervaded
Faraday’s life and work.

5. What was Michael Faraday expert?

A. science, history and religion
B. chemistry, electricity and calculus
C. electronic, technology and religion
D. chemistry, physic and mathematics
E. physic, technology and photography

6. Which of the following statements closely relates to Michael Faraday?

A. Michael Faraday dedicated his life in science and religion.
B. Michael Faraday was downhearted his life in science.
C. Michael Faraday concentrated his life in technology.
D. Michael Faraday was one of successful scientists.
E. Michael Faraday poured his science in technology.

7. Based on the first paragraph, we conclude that ….

A. Faraday and James found the similar electromagnetic
B. Faraday found the electromagnetic induction
C. James discovered a DC electric current
D. James invented the motor technology
E. Faraday found the motor technology

1. President Donald Trump will bring the "full force" of the U.S. government to
combat human trafficking.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The president is meeting with senior advisers and
representatives of organizations that deal with trafficking at the White House. His
daughter is among those in attendance.
Trump calls “human trafficking” as a problem that is "not talked about
enough." He said that he would order the departments of Justice and Homeland
Security to take a hard look at the resources they were devoting to addressing
the issue.
Human trafficking tends to occur around international travel-hubs with
large immigrant populations, such as California and Texas. The U.S. Justice
Department estimates that 14,500–17,500 people, including young children,
teenagers, men and women, are trafficked into the country every year. They can
be domestic citizens or foreign nationals. According to the Department of State's
statistics from 2000, there are approximately 244,000 American children and
youth that are at risk for sex trafficking each year.

2. An Indonesian domestic worker has claimed that she lost her kidney
without her knowledge while she worked in Doha, Qatar, three years ago.
DOHA – Sri Rabitah, 25, told the Indonesian press on Monday that she
only realized what had happened before when she returned to her home and
went to hospital complaining of constant back pain.
To her surprised, doctors told the young mother that one of her kidneys
was missing.
Muhammad Iqbal, a foreign ministry official, said that her case was a
“clear indication” of organ trafficking and called for an urgent investigation soon.
Her employers allegedly told her to go for a medical check-up at a
hospital, during which she was placed under anaesthesia with no explanation.
“Without permission, I got an injection. The doctor said I was so weak, so I
was told to relax,” Sri told the Detik news site.
Sri said that she remembered being taken to a room containing medical
tools before waking up in pain with an inexplicable incision scar.
 She claims that she was never given an explanation about what
happened in the room at that time, and was sent back home as her employers
deemed her unfit to work.
Sri has said that she wants to fight back. “I want the government to sue
the perpetrator. My kidney was stolen,” she said.
