Electromagnetism: From Faraday to Electromagnetic Waves.

The Origin of Magnetic Resonance

The history of science and technology underwent a sea change with the discovery of electromagnetic. This fundamental force of nature, which connects magnetism and electricity, has greatly influenced our view of the cosmos and opened the door to several technological developments. The origins of electromagnetism can be discovered in the early 1800s, when a number of scientific experiments and findings set the groundwork for this ground-breaking area of study.

Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted was a pivotal figure in the development of electromagnetic. Oersted carried out a revolutionary experiment in 1820 that would permanently alter the direction of science. He noticed that a magnetic needle will deviate from its typical north-south orientation when it was positioned next to an electric current-carrying wire. This seemingly insignificant observation suggested a deeper relationship between electricity and magnetism and established the framework for additional research into the nature of this relationship. Oersted's experiment brought up a number of fascinating issues. If true, how might electric currents produce magnetic fields? Was there a reciprocal link that allowed electric currents to be induced by shifting magnetic fields? These would be the first of many inquiries that would lead to a rush of scientific investigation and testing.
