UNIFIED THEORY -- Electromagnetism
For years, physicists have sought and found unified theories.
- 1861-1865
- James Maxwell, in a series of pages,
described the interrelation of electric
and magnetic fields thereby unifying them into electromagnetism.
This led to the now-famous Maxwell's Equations.
- 1881-1884
- Hertz demonstrated radio
waves and established that radio waves and light are
electromagnetic waves of different frequencies,
as predicted by Maxwell's theory.
