Around 1820, a Danish physicist called Hans Christian Oersted (17771851) shoed that
an electric ire can create a pattern o! "a#netis"$ Decade later, %n#lish che"ist &ichael
'araday (171187) pro*ed that the opposite could happen too$ He pro*ed e can use
"a#netis" to #enerate electricity and that #i*e hi" to de*elop the electric "otor and electricity
#enerator that no e use in our orld$
Another #reat scientist, +a"es Cler &a-ell (18.1187) as a/le to co"e up ith a
onder!ul sin#le theory that e-plained /oth electricity and "a#netis"$ &a-ell su""ed up
e*erythin# people had disco*ered in !our si"ple euations to produce a super/ theory o!
electro"a#netis", hich he pu/lished in 187.$ He realied that electro"a#netis" could tra*el in
the !or" o! a*es, at the speed o! li#ht, and concluded that li#ht itsel! had to /e a ind o!
electro"a#netic a*e$ A/out a decade a!ter &a-ells death, a /rilliant 3er"an physicist na"ed
Heinrich Hert (1857184) /eca"e the !irst person to produce electro"a#netic a*es in a
