electromagnetism

Discusses the author's discovery of electrical currents in parts of the nervous system, reviewing his experiments on regeneration in animals, and looks at the resulting medical advances and possible future applications of electromagnetic technology.

Introduces electromagnetic and mechanical waves, discussing the properties of waves, the electromagnetic spectrum, and vibrations.

Photographs, illustrations, and simple text describe how electromagnetism works.

Magnets are all around us, but how do they work? This innovate book delves into that question and many more, showing readers how the pushes and pulls of magnetic force impact both our planet and everyday lives. Informative flowcharts bring magnetism concepts to life giving readers extra incentive to learn more about magnetic materials, how magnets are used in motors, and much more.

Physics deals with subjects ranging from how things move to the creation of our universe. This book introduces us to what is being learned about the relationship of gravity, electricity, and magnetism at the subatomic level.

This book explains to young readers the concept of magnetism. With lots of pictures and examples it makes learning easy and fun. This book, along with the other five books in the series, will stimulate their curiosity and give youngsters an excellent foundation in physics.

"Page after page, this title proves that the power of attraction is undeniable. Readers move beyond a simple fascination with the power of magnets to a clear understanding of the science behind magnetics. Natural magnets, Earth's magnetic field, and the ties between electricity and magnetics are all featured, in addition to the creation and use of magnets in commercial and everyday applications. Information about the life and work of physicist Joseph Henry, a leading electromagnetics pioneer, and a timeline of important dates in the field are also included" -- Provided by publisher.

"Electricity is a wonderful convenience that provides us with light, heat, communications, and power. Readers will learn about the history of electricity, from its ancient discovery to the present, with a full chapter extolling the important contributions by Benjamin Franklin and a timeline for visual reinforcement. In this instructive volume, readers learn how electricity is produced, whether it is simple static electricity, bolts of lightning, or the movement of ions. Step-by-step projects give readers the chance to see new concepts in action" -- Provided by publisher.
