    The Electromagnetic Spectrum 1

    Lesson 2

    Lesson
    2

    ❖ Andre-Marie Ampere
     discovered that a wire carrying electric
    current can attract or repel another
    wire next to it that’s also carrying
    electric current

    3
    Lesson
    2

    ❖ Andre-Marie Ampere
     formulated Ampere’s Law of Electromagnetism and produced
    the best definition of electric current during his time
     proposed the existence of a particle we now recognize as the
    electron
     SI unit of electric current (A), the ampere, is named in his
    honor

    ❖Michael Faraday
     best known for his discovery of
    electromagnetic induction
     had also made fundamental
    contributions to the electromagnetic
    theory of light

    ❖Heinrich Hertz
     applied Maxwell’s theories to the
    production and reception of radio
    waves
     unit of frequency of a radio wave -
    one cycle per second - is named the
    hertz (Hz), in honor of him
     proved the existence of radio
    waves in the late 1880s

    ❖Heinrich Hertz Experiment

     He used two rods that served as


    a receiver and a spark gap as
    the receiving antennae. Where
    the waves were picked up, a
    corresponding spark would
    jump.

    ❖James Clerk Maxwell


     developed a scientific theory to
    better explain electromagnetic
    waves
     When Maxwell used this field
    theory to assume that light was
    an electromagnetic wave, and
    then correctly deduced the finite
    velocity of light, it was a
    powerful logical argument for
    the existence of the
    electromagnetic force field
    13
    Lesson
    2

    ❖James Clerk Maxwell


     noticed that electrical fields and
    magnetic fields can couple
    together to form electromagnetic
    waves
     discovered that a changing
    magnetic field will induce a
    changing electric field and vice
    versa.

    ❖James Clerk Maxwell


     described and quantified the relationships between
    electricity, magnetism and the propagation of
    electromagnetic waves--Maxwell's Equations.

     he calculated 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

    ❖ Maxwell’s Equation

    (1) electric field diverges from electric charge, an


    expression of the Coulomb force,
    (2) there are no isolated magnetic poles, but the
    Coulomb force acts between the poles of a magnet,
    17
    Lesson

    ❖ Maxwell’s Equation

    (3.) electric fields are produced by changing magnetic


    fields, an expression of Faraday’s law of induction,
    (4.) circulating magnetic fields are produced by changing
    electric fields and by electric currents
    18

    ❖ Hans Christian Oersted


     discovered that the electric
    current in a wire can deflect a
    magnetized compass needle
