impact on physics, was coincidentally born in the same year that Mi- chael Faraday made his great experimental discovery of induction. Like Newton, Maxwell also began his scientific career fascinated by color and light. Newton had explored the spectrum of visible colors into which white light splits wh
th a current of known magnitude. This force is proportional to the product of the currents. Let's call the constant of proportionality in this case B. Maxwell showed that the speed of an electromagnetic disturbance that emanates from an oscillating charge can be rendered precisely in terms of the measured
