Electromagnetic Induction
... Michael Faraday first discovered it, using some of the works of Hans Christian Oersted. His work started at first using different combinations of wires and magnetic strengths and currents, but it wasn't until he tried moving the wires that he got any success. It turns out that electromagnetic induct ...

... 1. C—Electric field is a vector. Look at the field at the center due to each charge. The field due to the lefthand charge points away from the positive charge; i.e., to the right; the field due to the right-hand charge points to the left. Because the charges are equal and are the same distance from ...

... A “short circuit” can occur, for example, when the insulation of two wires (active and neutral) in a cord wears through and the two bare wires touch each other. Alternatively, a bare active wire may touch a metal component on an appliance, which is earthed, and hence cause a “short circuit’. Many ap ...

History of electromagnetic theory

For a chronological guide to this subject, see Timeline of electromagnetic theory.The history of electromagnetic theory begins with ancient measures to deal with atmospheric electricity, in particular lightning. People then had little understanding of electricity, and were unable to scientifically explain the phenomena. In the 19th century there was a unification of the history of electric theory with the history of magnetic theory. It became clear that electricity should be treated jointly with magnetism, because wherever electricity is in motion, magnetism is also present. Magnetism was not fully explained until the idea of magnetic induction was developed. Electricity was not fully explained until the idea of electric charge was developed.
