JAMES CLERK MAXWELL MAXWELL, JAMES CLERK In private life Clerk Maxwell was one of the most lovable of men, a sincere and unostentatious Christian. Though perfectly free from any trace of envy or ill-will, he yet showed on fit occasion his contempt for that pseudo-science which seeks for the applause of the ignorant by professing to reduce the whole system of the universe to a fortuitous sequence of uncaused events. MAXWELL (FAMILY) FRIEDRICH MAX MULLER

Home Biography Historical Figures BIOGRAPHY : Historical Figures This paper is a good first attempt. Notice, however, that there are many paragraphs that are short some with only one sentence. For an essay or report to be considered really good, this should be avoided. A good paragraph has an introductory sentence, a body of sentences to support the introduction, and then a concluding sentence. James Clark Maxwell James Clerk Maxwell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on the thirteenth of November in 1831. His original name was James Clerk. "Maxwell" was added after his mother died when James was a mere eight years old. In 1841, Maxwell was sent to the Edinburgh Academy when he was eleven. At the Edinburg Academy, Maxwell had two papers published by the Royal Society of Edinburg. From the Edinburg Academy, Maxwell began furthering his academic career at the University of Cambridge in 1850. There, at the University of Cambridge, he won honors and prizes in mathematics. He went on to become a lecturer at Trinity College and in 1854 at Trinity College he obtained a mathematics degree. Two years later he joined the faculty of Marischal College and married the daughter of the principal of Marischal College. King's College of London and Marischal College of Aberdeen combined. Maxwell was appointed to King's College in London in 1860. He retired in 1865 to carry on his laboratory work but returned back to Cambridge in 1871. While at Cambridge, Maxwell planned the famous Cavendish laboratory and became the first Cavendish Professor. Maxwell's theory of electromagnetic waves established him as one of the greatest scientists in history.

Printer-friendly version James Clerk Maxwell (1831 - 1879) by Ann Lamont, B.Sc., M.Ed.St. First published in: Creation What could be more different than magnetism, electricity, and light? Yet, in the nineteenth century, James Clerk Maxwell showed that these phenomena were simply different manifestations of the same fundamental laws. He described all these, as well as radio waves, radar, and radiant heat, by a unique and elegant system of equations. James Clerk Maxwell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on June 13, 1831. He was the only child of John Clerk, an Edinburgh lawyer. Shortly after James' birth, John Clerk and his family moved to a country estate at Glenlair, near Edinburgh, which he inherited from his Maxwell ancestors. At that time, John Clerk adopted the additional surname Maxwell. The family lived a comfortable, middle-class life. James' early education was given by his mother, a dedicated Christian, and included studying the Bible. James exceptional memory became apparent at this time when he memorized all of Psalm 119. By the age of 8, James found his toys uninteresting. He preferred to apply his great curiosity to simple scientific investigations. For example, he used a tin plate to reflect sunlight, and made observations of the life-cycle of the frog.

Scientists and Electromagnetic Waves: Maxwell and Hertz About 150 years ago, James Clerk Maxwell , an English scientist, developed a scientific theory to explain electromagnetic waves. He noticed that electrical fields and magnetic fields can couple together to form electromagnetic waves. Neither an electrical field (like the static which forms when you rub your feet on a carpet), nor a magnetic field (like the one that holds a magnet onto your refrigerator) will go anywhere by themselves. But, Maxwell discovered that a CHANGING magnetic field will induce a CHANGING electric field and vice-versa. James Clerk Maxwell An electromagnetic wave exists when the changing magnetic field causes a changing electric field, which then causes another changing magnetic field, and so on forever. Unlike a STATIC field, a wave cannot exist unless it is moving. Once created, an electromagnetic wave will continue on forever unless it is absorbed by matter. Heinrich Hertz , a German physicist, applied Maxwell's theories to the production and reception of radio waves. The unit of frequency of a radio wave one cycle per second is named the hertz, in honor of Heinrich Hertz. Hertz proved the existence of radio waves in the late 1880s. He used two rods to serve as a receiver and a spark gap as the receiving antennae. Where the waves were picked up, a spark would jump. Hertz showed in his experiments that these signals possessed all of the properties of electromagnetic waves.

The First Electronic Church of America James Clerk Maxwell The Scottish physicist and mathematician James Clerk Maxwell was born November 13, 1831, the year that Samuel F.B. Morse first conceived the telegraph, and he died in Cambridge on November 5, 1879, the year that Thomas Edison was doing his first early work to invent the light bulb. Maxwell invented nothing. His major discovery of "the ether," the vast sea of space that made possible the transmission of light, heat and radio waves, was nothing more than a poetic metaphor. But Maxwell's ether, or "sea of space," made it possible for scientists and engineers who followed Maxwell to think of "waves," a move that gave them the imaginative model they needed to proceed with the experiments in electromagnetism that led to the wireless telegraph, radio, television, radar and the laser. Maxwell's metaphor led to all the advances in electronic communication that followed. His extension of the electromagnetic theory of light led directly to Heinrich Hertz's discovery of radio waves and to related advances in science and technology which have transformed the modern world.

Maxwell, James Clerk (18311879) Maxwell was born in Edinburgh and attended the Edinburgh Academy as a boy. Later he attended college at the University of Edinburgh and Trinity College, Cambridge. He was a talented student and read works of Newton Monge Fourier Taylor , and Cauchy . His early work extended the results of Faraday's theory of electricity. Later he investigated the properties of Saturn's rings and won a prize for his work. He taught at Marischal College, Cambridge, and King's College. The four differential equations we call Maxwell's equations were published in 1873 in a volume entitled Electricity and Magnetism Quotation: "Thus numbers may be said to rule the whole world of quantity, and the four rules of arithmetic may be regarded as the complete equipment of the mathematician."

James Clerk Maxwell British physicist who clarified the nature of the Saturn's rings, synthesized the electro-magnetic theory, and prepared the statistical mechanics by developing the kinetic theory of gases. He was born in Edinburgh and studied in Edingburgh and Cambridge. "Maxwell's demon" for showing that the second law of thermodynamics can be broken without contradiction at the level of molecular physics appears in his Theory of Heat (1871); and it illustrates the subtle nature of the kinetic theory which boldly combines Newtonian mechanics with probability theory. Although he held that there are two levels of knowledge (molecular-mechanical, and thermodynamic-statistical), and that the second law of thermodynamics hold only at the coarser level of knowledge, the matter was not as simple as that. Does not the demon need energy for its information processing for the supposed breach of the second law? The nature of irreversibility is still a difficult problem. Also, he is known as the first person succeeded in taking a color photo.

The Life of James Clerk Maxwell By Mary Bellis James Clerk Maxwell, a Scottish physicist and mathematician, is generally regarded as one of the world's greatest physicists. Maxwell's researches combined the fields of electricity and magnetism and introduced the concept of the electro-magnetic field . Following James Clerk Maxwell's research, we now call a space modified by the presence of magnetic field lines a "magnetic field": if a bar magnet is placed there, it will experience magnetic forces, but the field exists even when no magnet is present. Similarly, an "electric field" is the space in which electric forces may be sensedfor instance between metal objects charged (+) and (-) by a battery, as in the drawing accompanying the discussion of the electron. In 1864, James Clerk Maxwell demonstrated a subtle connection between the two types of force, unexpectedly involving the velocity of light.

MAXWELL, James Clerk b. 13 November 1831; d. 5 November 1879 Dr. James Clerk Maxwell was a Scottish physicist who made some far-reaching advances on electromagnetism. He held Professorships in a number of institutions, becoming the first Cavendish Professor of Physics at Cambridge University in 1871. His contribution in photography was in his studies of colour . Lecturing at the Royal Institution in London (May 1861) he was the first to demonstrate that by taking three pictures, each through a primary colour filter, and projecting the three using corresponding filters, so that they overlapped, colour pictures could be re-created. In working on his colour theories he collaborated with Thomas Sutton
