In 1864, James Clerk Maxwell developed a set of equations that changed the way we understand electricity and magnetism. These equations are now known as Maxwell’s equations. Maxwell’s equations describe the behavior of both electric and magnetic fields. They show how these fields interact with each other and with the matter. The equations also predict… Read More

Magnetism is one of the most important forces in the universe. It is responsible for the Sun’s heat and light, and it drives the Earth’s climate. Magnetism also creates beautiful auroras, and it can be harnessed to generate electricity. All matter is made up of atoms, which are tiny particles that are constantly moving. Atoms… Read More

The word “electron” was coined in 1894 by Irish physicist George Johnstone Stoney (1826–1911). He suggested that electrons were components of atoms and proposed the name “corpuscle” for them. In 1897, English physicist J. J. Thomson (1856–1940) discovered electrons in cathode ray experiments and proposed that they were parts of atoms as well. Electrons are… Read More

Electromagnetism is one of the four fundamental forces of nature and the other three are gravity, weak interaction, and strong interaction. It is the force that governs the behavior of electrons and protons, and it is responsible for most of the physical phenomena we see in everyday life. Electromagnetism arises from two basic principles: electricity… Read More
