Maxwell is my favourite among the scientists. His intuition and mathematical capabilities distinguished him. Wish there was a way to ask kids to focus on intuition when studying. The smart ones nail the mathematics but do not build their intuition due to the focus on securing the Marks in the exams. These maxwell equations are enchantingly beautiful.

He got the credit for all the work of Oliver Heaviside. I am not saying Maxwell had no contribution, he completed those equations but Heaviside gave us the tool to visualise it.

@@piyush2404 Heaviside proposed the existence of the ionosphere and also gravitational waves. His form of Maxwell's equations are a better fit for quantum equations. His birthday, May 18th is shared by artist Kumiko Krchnak who, perhaps sensing Heaviside's tweaking of Maxwell offered a twist of her own leading to the discovery of the arrow of time. She is not a physicist but an artist and yet some consider her contribution worthy of a Nobel Prize.

Faraday was a trained bookbinder who sought work in Humphrey Davy's lab. 5 years later playing with coils and magnets and a meter he noticed a movement in the meter when wires passed a magnet. Faraday has always been my hero since I am poor at math like he was. It took Maxwell's genius to develop the 4 equations to define what the uneducated experimenter had stumbled across through dedication and perserverance.

Cavendish rarely published any of his research and it would still be largely unknown if JCW had not searched for it and published it. Reading and understanding the work of people who have gone before is largely how science progresses, and that us what Faraday and then JCW did . Einstein said that he did not stand on the shoulders of Newton, but of JCW, and, quite correctly, nobody says that JCW should get credit for Einsteins work

Maxwell has been grounding on works of at least 24 scientists that describes mainly hydrodynamics. And Helmholtz was the main.

I watched these series when I studied Physics in high school. Even at university, I still use these videos for review and understanding.

Having trying to understand how 'light-wave' is generated, after watching so many videos, This one is the Best and easily understood! Thanks

I have watched the mechanical universe and the mechanical universe and beyond at least a half a dozen times. The entire series is wonderfully produced and I always enjoyed the music. That horn that echoes. And every time I've watched it There is one video with Ben Franklin never had any sound.

How very British. "Ah, so an oscillating electric field will induce an oscillating magnetic field and vice versa and this oscillation will travel at the speed of light. So light is an 'electromagnetic' wave......time for tea"

If you look at the wave propagation forms in 9:45 you will see that waves all have in common this interesting ratio of the "ability to move" vs the "ability to be restricted from moving." 23:05 waves of all frequency - e.g. polychromatic

This video is very weird. It is a script about a class with a teacher that stands in front of a board with writing that he doesn't reference or change. The class is forced to watch a video and then the class is over. If there is a video on Electromagnetism, then why is there a surrounding sub-plot of it being shown in a classroom to a class that asks nothing, gets nothing from their teacher and then acts like zombies? I'm sorry for all you who love this video, but isn't it enough to show the video the teacher in the video showed to us, and leave out where the teacher and students pretend to be in a classroom watching it with me? I don't like this video, because the premise is too weird. I'd much rather watch a video about science where it is a real classroom with a real teacher saying something useful, instead of a staged classroom performance in order to what... make the audience think the video shown is great, because actors pretending to be their peers are liking it? This is just weird to me... please tell me why it is not weird and good for learning science like this?

What an excellent introduction, the real form follows function and recognition of the difference between a static recording of historical events from real-time continuous creation cause-effect connection Eternity-now Interval Conception, the eventuality of pure-math dynamic relative-timing, e-Pi-i sync-duration resonances. And "When the Student is ready, the Teacher will appear", that is resonance in 1-0-infinity probability Entanglement, and the explanation for Piaget Stages of Early Childhood - Beginning Teaching Development in Education programs. The 0-1-2-ness log-antilog reciprocation-recirculation potential condensation in/of instantaneous positioning Physics of this, is evidenced by Maxwell's Math-Physics Equations. So to divide the measure of Electric Condensation density-intensity Constant by the Magnetic Constant is to observe the relative-timing reciprocation-recirculation of logarithmic 0-1-2-3-4-etc exponentiation-ness superposition-> superimposed 0-1-2-ness in 3D-T picture-plane containment states of pure-math Perspective.., analogous to WYSIWYG in Saturnian Rings of phase-locked Logarithmic=> orthogonal-normal reciprocation-recirculation measure structure of coherence-cohesion. The result of Singularity-point omnidirectional-dimensional observation is the holography of riding in parallel with a line-of-sight beam of light, as Einsteinian Thought Experimentalist's Intuitions predicted, a ratio-rate condensation of Bose-Einsteinian coherence-cohesion objective location in the Eternity-now Universal standing wave-packaging Holographic Resonance Fusion-Fission Function. The "capacitor problem of E-M potential positioning applies directly to the electrogravitic positioning potential of ER=EPR shell-horizon density-intensity envelope-shaping-> Lensing orientation-observation resonance phase-locked phenomena. Electric Flux = Singularity-point Fluxion-Integral positioning in the Universal coherence-cohesion echo-chamber, Cavity Resonance, standing wave modulation holography dimensionality in Absolute zero-infinity, Sublimation-Tunnelling tuning-probability, Aether.

Maxwell is the man

I remember watching “The Mechanical Universe" on VHS in college. Great learning tool!

Wow. Maxwell was the oldest 32 year old ever.

That was superb, great upload and superb teacher too, great sense of humour really helps you learn.

Best explanation of Maxwell's equation. I was always wondered how Maxwell derived these equations and speed of light. I always was searching for how this was derived and this kind explaination. However I am not sure why he thought this speed is of em wave or light why not any other universal constant.

Strangely, mathematical versions of 19th century warfare models may be expressed as homologs of (coupled systems of) Maxwell's equations. So in the end, both the war historian and the classical physicist were studying the same thing.

Pure genius

I apologize in advance if someone else has preceded me, some pertinent information is missing. The 4 equations presented are Maxwell-Heaviside vector equations. The original equations are 20 quaternion equations, which Heaviside converted to vectors. Faraday predicted that waves moved at the speed of light but couldn’t prove it. Further information on Faraday and Maxwell is presented in 'Einsteins big idea'.

Very well said about history. It is unfortunate that our politicians always glorify the political history for their own vested interest what actually has nothing to do with our present and future course of action; when they completely ignore the history of science and human knowledge that has so much to do with both of our present and future.

Holy Mother of Hell, is THAT an understatement!

Nice video and presentation. Is it fair to say that the prerequisites for light propagation are e0 and u0? Also that e0, u0 are attributes of light medium, Aether? Also that c isn’t a constant, instead is dependent of u0 and e0? Also that radiating solar wind increases the permittivity e0 and caused a permittivity gradient around solar that responsible for a velocity gradient of a passing light and hence bends it? That gravity bends light is out of ignorance in Aether ?

This is an excellent example of re-vision of the intellectual development of Mathematical potential possibilities as regulatory formulae. It's what I was taught, and it was overwhelmingly impressive at the time. Gradually the personal problems of relating it to ourselves as part of the mechanism got in the way of work requirements where the reasoning gets lost while empirical formulae are everything.., and then the whole process of teaching and learning is reiterated in another round from another point of view, less material and more subjective. The Totality of Spinfoam, an apparent mathematical cross-sectioning of Superspin Modulation, is not unlike Faraday's recognition of the micro connection before Maxwell formatted it into a numerically quantitative generalization. The same can be said for String Theory and QM-TIMESPACE yet to be re-formatted for e-Pi-i resonance, cause-effect modulation. Clear thinking new approaches are required. "You are me and I am you and we are all together" in Temporal Superposition-point Singularity, positioned in Phys-Chem connection to the projection drawing wave-package of axial-tangential In-form-ation formulae, combined perspective of unique multi-phase states of Time Timing, in Totality. As an aside, the Rings of Saturn, like the plane of the Solar System and Disk of the Galaxy, are examples of superimposed resonance, ..timing transition "flow" from the ditty.. "Big Whorles have little Whorles, that feed on their velocity, and little Whorles have lesser Whorles and so on to viscosity." It's the axial-now shifting, AM-FM communication of inherent e-Pi-i "superconducting" resonances, in the aspect of QM-Time field identified as Gravitation, ..Not surprisingly, it's confusing?

I have to watch this again....and again and again. Maybe I will just remember the equation and leave it at that. Don't understand Einstein's either.😮😊

Guys, little help here if you please. I am confused. Maxwell got speed of light dividing electric constant with magnetic constant according to narrator.
