Faraday's experiments

Michael Faraday conducted a series of groundbreaking experiments in the early 19th century that explored the relationship between electricity and magnetism. In one key experiment, he discovered electromagnetic induction by moving a magnet through a coil of wire, which produced an electric current. This principle is fundamental to how generators and transformers work today. Faraday also established the concept of electric fields and lines of force, helping to lay the groundwork for modern electromagnetic theory. His findings revolutionized science and technology, leading to advancements in electrical engineering and the development of many electrical devices we use today.
