 introduction:
ELECTROMAGNETISM
~is the study of the electromagnetic force, a sort of physical
interaction that takes place between electrically charged particles, and
is a branch of physics. Light and other electromagnetic radiation are
produced by the electromagnetic force, which is transmitted by
electromagnetic fields made up of electric and magnetic fields. Along
with the strong interaction, the weak interaction, and gravitation, it is
one of the four basic interactions (often referred to as forces) in
nature. At high energies, the electromagnetic and weak forces combine
to form the electroweak force.

 all too maxwell
James Clerk Maxwell
I wasn't listening that much earlier
and came across some names when I
Teacher, i have a question was reading my notes. Any chance
about the lesson we you might have heard of James Clark
discussed earlier. Maxwell?
ASK YOUR Sure, What
TEACHER is it?

James Clerk Maxwell is most famous for

his theory of electromagnetism, w It We'll actually be having
describes the interaction between the a short quiz tomorrow
electric field and magnetic field.
Direction of both the fields is about that. I'm glad
perpendicular to each other. Maxwell that you asked !
also concluded that the wave travels at
the speed of light.
Alrighty, Thanks again
teacher !

WOW! that's a lot of

information
only love can hertz like
this
Heinrich Hertz
Hey, how are you? I've
missed you, you wouldn't
believe what i just
learned from school today
!!
Hey, i've missed you
too! Oh wow that's
great, what's it
about?
Heinrich Hertz was a brilliant
German physicist and
experimentalist who demonstrated
that the electromagnetic waves
predicted by James Clerk Maxwell
actually exist.
Oh yea i remembered
that topic when i was
in grade 10 !
The phone we're using is
a form of a radio wave.
How cool is that ?
Oh wow ! Where did
you get that?
Hertz is also the man whose peers
honored by attaching his name to
the unit of frequency; a cycle per
second is one hertz. Anyway, get
ready and i'll pick you up later at
7 pm
Yup that's right ! See
ya.
Thank God it's faraday

 summary:
James Clerk Maxwell
James Clerk Maxwell (father of electromagnetism theory) was one of the
greatest scientists of the nineteenth century. He is best known for the
formulation of the theory of electromagnetism and in making the connection
between light and electromagnetic waves. One of the first things that Maxwell
did with the equations was to calculate the speed of an electromagnetic wave
and found that the speed of an electromagnetic wave was almost identical to
the speed of light. Based on this discovery, he was the first to propose that light
was an electromagnetic wave

Michael Faraday
Michael Faraday is probably best known for his discovery of electromagnetic
induction, his contributions to electrical engineering and electrochemistry, o
the fact that he was responsible for introducing the concept of "field" in
physics to describe electromagnetic interaction.

Andrei Marie Ampere

Although he was not the first person to observe a connection between
electricity and magnetism, André-Marie Ampère was the first scientist to
attempt to theoretically explain and mathematically describe the
phenomenon. His contributions laid the groundwork upon which the science
of electrodynamics (a term coined by Ampère, but now more commonly
referred to as electromagnetics) has been built.

Hans Christian Oersted

A Danish physicist and chemist who discovered that the electrical current
in a wire could deflect a magnetized compass needle, a phenomenon whose
value was quickly recognized and which influenced the development of
electromagnetic theory.

During the evening lecture in April 1820, Ørsted discovered that a magnetic
needle perpendicularly aligns itself with a current-carrying thread, a definite
experimental proof of the relationship between electricity and magnetism.

Heinrich Hertz
The discovery of radio waves, which was widely seen as confirmation of James
Clerk Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory and paved the way for numerous
advances in communication technology, was made by German physicist
Heinrich Hertz. In the late 1880s, Hertz carried out a comprehensive study of the
waves to develop an understanding of their behavior. During the investigation he
found that radio waves travel in straight lines and can be focused, diffracted,
refracted and polarized.
