Maxwell is underrated

Maxwell’s legacy doesn’t need to be propped up through Einstein, he’s a genius in his own right and at the same level as Einstein.

Please do the magnificent Boltzmann: the great man, physicist, and philosopher whose incredible works inspired and led to quantum mechanics, who also expanded and went beyond Maxwell's work on statistical mechanics. It's extremely needed, new to KZfaq, and would look awesome with this quality of videos you guys post. I appreciate your channel!!

Maxwell is indeed the father of Modern Physics, as some describe him. I am adding this video to my collection of papers and videos about Maxwell. Thank you!

It is strange how, 150 years later, the majority of people still find very hard to comprehend the concept of electromagnetic field and develop any application, using the four Maxwell's equation. Everybody is happy to utilise an application of an electromagnetic field - a smartphone, a microwave oven, a TV, a Wi-Fi router - without giving an hitch on why the thing work. Nature is great, the master of all things, an inspiration for those who believe in God; Maxwell was an outstanding mind - only today we are grasping the fact that his intuition was at almost the same level of Einstein Relativity theory. Thank you for the video...

The collaboration between Faraday & Maxwell is grossly under-appreciated. One was a self-made man and the other a geeky math whiz, quite a pair! Discussing Maxwell's invention of the displacement current as his AHA! contribution when considering the magnetic field of a charging capacitor would have been nice.

Scotland with a population of only 3m in the 19th and 20th century has produced many of what we use today, MRI, Radar, Logs, TV, Phones, Toadter, Microwave, Wattage, Geology, Medicine, from England we appreciate our Smart and cleaver Scottish neighbours 🇬🇧

He also made significant contribution in statistical mechanics and control theory.

Maxwell had a wide band of knowledge. He understood the mathematics and physics of fuid flow and force fields.

Maxwell's contributions to Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics laid the ground work for Quantum Mechanics.

"When we turn our attention to the general case of electrodynamics ... our first impression is surprise at the enormous complexity of the problems to be solved.", Max Planck (1932), quoted at the opening of Chapter 15 "General Electromagnetic Fields" in Andrew Zangwill's "Modern Electrodynamics.

Thank you for sharing this informative video about James Maxwell's groundbreaking contributions to physics. His theories on electromagnetism continue to shape our understanding of the universe today. It's amazing to think that his work over a century ago laid the foundation for many of the technological advancements we enjoy today. Truly a remarkable scientist!

Please do a story on Srinivasa Ramanujan. He was a self taught mathematician and I think his story is extraordinary. His work includes extending the fields complex analysis, number theory, infinite series (he founded a formula for infinite series of pi), and continued fractions.

Perhaps the most underrated scientist, who, more than anyone else, was responsible for the technologies of the modern world

At 6:23 the woman says Maxwell's work was the most important of the 20th century ...... it should be 'of the 19th century'.

How could somebody just realise that colour is made of red or green or blue, exceptional genius.

Maxwell is undoubtedly among the greatest scientists ever lived!

Nickolas and maxwell most underrated gems 😢😢

Respect to James Clarke Maxwell. His brilliant ability in mathematics was the answer Michael Faraday was looking for because he was being ridiculed for his theories, but had no mathematics literacy, in order to do the equations, to prove his theories. JC Maxwell appeared on his doorstep with the magic...

Such a great man! Thanks for the video.

Your channel is amazing. you definitely deserve more views

Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle >>

"What's the go a' that?", JCM as a kid ... and as a grown man.

Was that Maxwell's discovery alone? Didn't Faraday play a major role in the revelation as well?

Newsthink the channel deserve 'like' as it gives this type of website resources!❤

E=MC2/ Einstein = MaxwellClerk squared.

Beautifully explained the life of Maxwell. Can you make a video of Srinivasa Ramanujan or CV Raman one of the greatest in the field of Mathematics and Physics respectively

True genius!

Maxwell is the ultimate testament that you can be a Christian and also become a scientific giant.

Brilliant video! Thank you so much for these lovely biographies on physicists and other scientists! One of these figures I often find not much explored is the Indian astronomer Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar. Who’s name reigns familiar to many modern day astronomers due to his significant contributions to our understanding of stars. Though for more than the science, he is an interesting case of someone moving abroad to pursue his scientific endeavors as well as facing opposition of his ideas due to the prejudices of a more well-known superior in that time (Eddington. Who proved Einstein’s theory of general relativity with the eclipse). Keep up the great content!

this gave me chills, what a brilliant man!

I love your channel because of your such contents and as usual your voice fits the best

Best video for inspiring scientist very well written spekn and delivered

pure joy this video

Amazing, an informative video. Can you possibly do a video on Richard P Feynman?

I dont know why but all the maxwells that I know of are all extraordinary. - James maxwell, Glenn maxwell and Gavin Maxwell

Please make a documentary on David Hilbert.......plzplzplz

The way to combine general relativity and quantum mechanics is to realize that they take place at different moments in time. Because causality has a speed limit (c) every point in space where you observe it from will be the closest to the present moment. When we look out into the universe, we see the past which is made of particles (GR). When we try to look at smaller and smaller sizes and distances, we are actually looking closer and closer to the present moment (QM). The wave property of particles appears when we start looking into the future of that particle. It is a probability wave because the future is probabilistic. Wave function collapse happens when we bring a particle into the present/past. GR is making measurements in the predictable past. QM is trying to make measurements of the probabilistic future.

I love what you teach me and look forward to Every video. Thank You.

We need More such physics videos. You are really good it

Maxwell didn't discover the link between magnetism and electricity, that was Faraday. What Maxwell did was deriving the total mathematical representation of such a phenomenon. It's like before Newton, apple still falls from tree. But Newton put in in a formula.

Thank you for this quote that I saw for the first time: "Science is but an image of the truth, and should speak only so far as it is spoken to.” I will be sharing it with my students.

7:55 can someone rephrase that and tell me again? It didn’t make sense, is it because the ball’s speed isn’t constant?

0:19 Dont’t forget that it was the danish physicist H.C. Oersted who discovered the link between magnetism and electricity.

You seem to have James Joule in one of your “Maxwell” photos?

He also wrote poetry. I once read that most physicists are confortable with Einstein's Mathematics, but few understand Maxwell's.

You quickly became one of my favorite channels.

This is awesome, such an inspiration.

Thanks

I asked an electrician many years ago what he thought of Faraday and Maxwell, he said “Who?” ‘Nuff said.

I'll never forget Maxwell's equations from when I studied Physical Chemistry in college.

Just to clarify, Michael Faraday is generally credited with connecting electricity to magnetism with his thoroughly extensive experiments. It is Faraday’s publishings that inspired Maxwell to formalize electromagnetism in a single mathematical structure. Faraday and Maxwell were well aware of each other and there was a great amount of admiration between the two. Faraday fully deserves credit and is inspirational for his lack of formal education, his preternatural experimental talent and his unmatched execution of science 9even with no mathematical rigor). He discovered electromagnetism with his wits and rigor and it is incredibly impressive in its own right. This is not to diminish Maxwell’s contributions, if anything a blanket credit for electromagnetism is underselling his influence on all physics to come after his model. His field theories revolutionized modeling in physics and set a new standard for mathematical rigor going forward. But he did not discover the relation between electricity and magnetism, he formalized it mathematically (and then showed how light is involved just as a consequence of his model)

Your videos are just the best.

Maxwell was so unique, I love how fascinating his ideas on electromagnetism inspired so many good scientists to come, and contributed to the birth of the scientists Einstein and the engineer Tesla. Thank you for rendering the world a better place!

What a curve ball, I thought this was going to be about Ernst Mach

Really love your videos!!!!❤❤❤❤

I love James Maxwell. He was amazing

Thanks!

Violet= 50 Ohm gives off willingly the color of ROYAL

Great human. Practical applications are great, but theoretical science provides a framework for them, so I regard it higher. Not only that, but theoretical science aims to satisfy our thirst for knowledge about how things work, which in my view is the highest of goals.

He is so understand 😢

Published his first paper at 14 🙄? I guess that is because they didn't have tiktok.

Can you make a video about guglielmo marconi

Title suggestion, Albert Einstein said "I Stand On The Shoulders Of Maxwell" Saying, Albert Einstein Said, at the beginning draws the eye and curiosity, having Maxwell in the title is needed for a search word relevant to the video and quoting Einstein shows you're bringing facts and not opinions. I understand my channel & videos are nowhere near the caliber of yours. I use TubeBuddy often to decide on Keyword to use in title, video title in file name to upload, first few seconds of video and first part of description.

I think, humans see "Red" , "Yellow" "Blue" in Nature. e.g drawings. "Red" , "Green", "Blue" is for TV and electronic display screeens.

So many did not understand Maxwell. But Einstein truly recognized Maxwell's genius. Maxwell noted the RGB sequence. Maxwell's prediction of Saturn's rings was exceptional. I think Isaac Newton Vail has suggested the planetary rings on Earth (like Saturn's rings) collapsed on their planets resulting in various Great Deluges over Earth's geological history.

Newton Maxwell Einstein … In that order!

He is one of the greatest minds in human history❤❤

Look into Bergson

Maxwell did so much contribution to science

Another video for why I'm subscribed to this channel. :)

There's been some great British scientists. Newton, Faraday, Green, Clerk Maxwell, Heaviside, Rutherford, Dirac...

Micheal Faraday was the first person to hypothesize EM waves.

"170" years later, and sadly Edinburgh University suffers from the same discrimination, as does the city of Edinburgh itself! I have lived in Edinburgh, and spent 2 1/2 years semi-homeless here, and have not found the city welcoming in this respect, and that even now "8 years" later, that same stint of homelessness follows me around, and I am still 'banned' from various activities now. Nothing else, but 'crass discrimination' and these are organisation on their websites speak of 'inclusivity.'

6:20 I think she means... the 19th Century.

great content as always!

which song is this?

Maxwell and Heaviside are is the real hero of physics. Einstein as you will see lead us down a rabbit hole. Maxwell showed that setting the wave equation = 0, shows that EM fields propagates at speed c. But Heaviside showed that this only approximately valid in the farfield, and in the nearfield the wave equation must be set to a source term. Analysis shows that the fields propagate instantaneously in the nearfield and reduce to the speed of light in the farfield. Recent experiments have confirmed this. This occurs for not only the phase speed, group speed, but also the information speed. See the links below for more information. So the speed of light is not a constant and any theory such as Special Relativity or General Relativity that assumes this is wrong! A derivation of Relativity using instantaneous nearfield light, yields Galilean Relativity, where time is the same in all inertial frames and no Relativistic effects are observed. This can be easily seen by inserting c=infinity into the Lorentz Transform, yielding the Galilean Transform. So, Relativistic effects will observed if a moving body is observed using farfield light, but no Relativistic effects will be observed if instantaneous nearfield light is used. How can the effects of Relativity be real if they can be switched off by simply changing the frequency of the light used to observe them. The only possible conclusion is that Relativistic effects are just an optical illusion, and that Galilean Relativity is the correct theory of Relativity, where time is absolute, only the present exists, the past is gone, and the future is yet to be. Since General Relativity is based on Special Relativity, then it has the same problem. A better theory of Gravity is Gravitoelectromagnetism which assumes gravity can be mathematically described by 4 Maxwell equations, similar to to those of electromagnetic theory. It is well known that General Relativity reduces to Gravitoelectromagnetism for weak fields, which is all that we observe. Using this theory, analysis of an oscillating mass yields a wave equation set equal to a source term. Analysis of this equation shows that the phase speed, group speed, and information speed are instantaneous in the nearfield and reduce to the speed of light in the farfield. This theory then accounts for all the observed gravitational effects including instantaneous nearfield and the speed of light farfield. The main difference is that this theory is a field theory, and not a geometrical theory like General Relativity. Because it is a field theory, Gravity can be then be quantized as the Graviton. Lastly it should be mentioned that this research shows that the Pilot Wave interpretation of Quantum Mechanics can no longer be criticized for requiring instantaneous interaction of the pilot wave, thereby violating Relativity. It should also be noted that nearfield electromagnetic fields can be explained by quantum mechanics using the Pilot Wave interpretation of quantum mechanics and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle (HUP), where Δx and Δp are interpreted as averages, and not the uncertainty in the values as in other interpretations of quantum mechanics. So in HUP: Δx Δp = h, where Δp=mΔv, and m is an effective mass due to momentum, thus HUP becomes: Δx Δv = h/m. In the nearfield where the field is created, Δx=0, therefore Δv=infinity. In the farfield, HUP: Δx Δp = h, where p = h/λ. HUP then becomes: Δx h/λ = h, or Δx=λ. Also in the farfield HUP becomes: λmΔv=h, thus Δv=h/(mλ). Since p=h/λ, then Δv=p/m. Also since p=mc, then Δv=c. So in summary, in the nearfield Δv=infinity, and in the farfield Δv=c, where Δv is the average velocity of the photon according to Pilot Wave theory. Consequently the Pilot wave interpretation should become the preferred interpretation of Quantum Mechanics. It should also be noted that this argument can be applied to all fields, including the graviton. Hence all fields should exhibit instantaneous nearfield and speed c farfield behavior, and this can explain the non-local effects observed in quantum entangled particles. *KZfaq presentation of above arguments: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qcuAl61o27m1poU.html *More extensive paper for the above arguments: William D.

I've always thought it was Minkovvski...

What a life

Kamień Feliks. Currently the fastest spinning stone on the planet

Albert Einstein didn't have any IQ IQ means saved data in computer.

I'd say preceded would be the right word.

Now it is time for me be the Einstein of neuroscience. Amin. Amin . Amin.

You said @7:50 +/ a few that Einstein showed that the speed of light never changes. That is not correct. The constancy of the speed of light is his 2nd postulate of Einstein's special theory of relativity.

Maxwell contribution are great big respect his work on electromagnetism and the 4 set of equations for the electric field and magnetic field Make vid on Micheal faraday

Most important discovery of the 19th century ... NOT of the 20th century.

damn that t shirt is cool

What is the speed of GRAVITATIONAL FIELD???

In the realm of science, where brilliance shines bright, Lies a tale of inspiration, in the depths of the night. Newsthink uncovers the story untold, Of the scientist who inspired Einstein, bold. In the halls of academia, where ideas collide, Lived a mind so sharp, with knowledge as its guide. The scientist's name, now lost to time's sway, But their legacy lives on, to this day. For it was this unknown mind, so wise and keen, Who sparked the flame in young Einstein's dream. With theories profound and insights deep, They inspired the thoughts Einstein would keep. Newsthink reveals the secrets concealed, Of the scientist whose influence was sealed. In the annals of history, their name may fade, But their impact on Einstein, forever made. So let us honor the scientist unknown, Whose brilliance illuminated minds, not alone. For in the journey of discovery, they played a part, Inspiring Einstein's scientific art.

James Clerk Maxwell is my lifelong hero. Probably the greatest scientist of all time. The giant who,, standing on his shoulders, allowed Einstein to see father...

Hello mam love from india 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳😍

The statement at 6:20 "the most important discovery of the 20th century" should be the 19th century, James Clarke Maxwell died in 1879... 🙄

Idk why Im kinda resonating with the story

From Galileo to Boltzmann (2015)

Such an amazing channel but youtube says that I can't turn on notifications for this channel because it's content made for kids?!?! Must be a bug.

👍👏

An Invisible Genius 👌 😞 Y …🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😎
