Michael Faraday( ) - English experimental physicist and chemist. Member of the Royal Society of London and many other scientific organizations, including foreign honorary member of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences. Opened electromagnetic induction underlying modern industrial production of electricity and its many applications. Created the first model of the motor.

Royal Institute of Laboratory ( ) Way to science ( ) Creating a motor. Scientific fame ( ) The study of electromagnetism ( ) Recent years ( ) Basic experiments took place between August 29 - November 4, 1831, the most important of them were two: When moving the magnetic core inside the coil wire in the latter an electric current. Turning on or off the current in the coil lead wire to a current in the secondary coil, whose windings are alternated with first coils.

Faraday made many discoveries in the field of chemistry. In 1824, he discovered benzene and isobutylene, one of the first liquid received chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, ammonia, nitrogen dioxide and ethylene. Faraday collected the first transformer inductance investigated, opened in 1832 by the American scientist John. Henry, discharges in gases, and others. In the study of the properties of dielectric permittivity introduced the concept (which is called "inductive capacity"). The British government has repeatedly attracted Faraday as a recognized authority in the field of applied physics to solve pressing technical problems - improvement of lighthouses, ships underbody protection against corrosion And expertise in litigation and other.
