Magnetic fields caused by electricity were discovered. Hans Christian Oersted, from Denmark, found that when electricity flows through a wire, it generates a magnetic field which affects the needle of a nearby compass. ... In the same year, Thomas Johann Seebeck discovered thermo-electricity. He found that when the junctions of certain …

Best known for his work on electricity and electrochemistry, Faraday proposed the laws of electrolysis. He also discovered benzene and other hydrocarbons. As a young man in London, Michael Faraday attended science lectures by the great Sir Humphry Davy. He went on to work for Davy and became an influential scientist in his own right.

Long before Thomas Edison patented -- first in 1879 and then a year later in 1880 -- and began commercializing his incandescent light bulb, British inventors were demonstrating that electric light was possible with the arc lamp. In 1835, the first constant electric light was demonstrated, and for the next 40 years, scientists around the world ...

Benjamin Franklin. American statesman and jack-of-all-trades Ben Franklin created one of the most memorable experiments about the as-of-yet hidden nature of electricity, in 1752. Ben had his suspicions that lightning — that bright and scary, yet totally unexplainable flash in the sky — was created by electricity.

He perceived a very evident electric spark," Priestley wrote. Using the Leyden jar, Franklin "collected electric fire very copiously," Priestley recounted. That "electric fire"—or electricity—could then be discharged at a later time. Franklin's own description of the event appeared in the Pennsylvania Gazette on October 19, 1752 ...

These experiments led directly to Faraday's two laws of electrochemistry: (1) The amount of a substance deposited on each electrode of an electrolytic cell is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity passed through the cell. (2) The quantities of different elements deposited by a given amount of electricity are in the ratio of ...

History of Electricity. Starting with Ben. Many people think Benjamin Franklin discovered electricity with his famous kite- flying experiments in 1752. Franklin is famous for tying a key to a kite string during a thunderstorm, proving that static electricity and lightning were indeed, the same thing. However, that isn't the whole story of ...

Electricity is a secondary energy source. Electricity is the flow of electrical power or charge. Electricity is both a basic part of nature and one of the most widely used forms of energy. The electricity that we use is a secondary energy source because it is produced by converting primary sources of energy such as coal, natural gas, nuclear ...

Electric shocks from fish and rays were observed and prescribed in ancient Greece to treat headaches. Around 600 BC, Thales of Miletus made observations about static electricity generated by rubbing amber. It had been discovered that a rubbed piece of amber would attract particles like dust and two rubbed pieces of amber would repel each other.
