Michael faraday was an English scientist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main discoveries include those of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis.
Prescott Joule FRS. This led to the law of conservation of energy, which led to the development of the first law of thermodynamics. The SI derived unit of energy, the joule, is named after James Joule. Born: December 24, 1818, Salford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom Died: October 11, 1889, Sale, United Kingdom Nationality: English Influenced by: John Dalton, John Davies Books: The scientific papers of James Prescott Joule, Mathematical and Physical Papers Parents: Alice Prescott Joule, Benjamin Joule.
Sir Isaac Newton PRS MP was an English physicist and mathematician who is widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and as a key figure in the scientific revolution. Wikipedia Born: January 4, 1643, Woolsthorpe-by-Colsterworth, United Kingdom Died: March 31, 1727, Kensington, London, United Kingdom Buried: Westminster Abbey, London, United Kingdom Influenced by: Galileo Galilei, Johannes Keple r. First law: When viewed in an inertial reference frame, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by an external force. [2][3] Second law: The vector sum of the external forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration vector a of the object: F = ma. Third law: When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body.
1. Physicist William Thomson, 1 st Baron Kelvin was a British mathematical physicist and engineer who was born in Belfast in 1824. Born: June 26, 1824, Belfast, United Kingdom Died: December 17, 1907, Largs, United Kingdom Full name: William Thomson Absolute temperatures are stated in units of kelvin in his honour. While the existence of a lower limit to temperature (absolute zero) was known prior to his work, Lord Kelvin is widely known for determining its correct value as approximately − 273. 15 degree Celsius or − 459. 67 degree Fahrenheit.
Born Heinrich Rudolf Hertz 22 February 1857 Hamburg, German Confederation Died 1 January 1894 (aged 36) Bonn, German Empire Hertz always had a deep interest in meteorology, probably derived from his contacts with Wilhelm von Bezold (who was his professor in a laboratory course at the Munich Polytechnic in the summer of 1878). However, Hertz did not contribute much to the field himself except some early articles as an assistant to Helmholtz in Berlin, including research on the evaporation of liquids, a new kind of hygrometer, and a graphical means of determining the properties of moist air when subjected to adiabatic changes.

Despite his professional success Volta tended to be a person inclined towards domestic life and this was more apparent in his later years. At this time he tended to live secluded from public life and more for the sake of his family until his eventual death in 1827 from a series of illnesses which began in 1823. [1] The SI unit of electric potential is named in his honour as the volt Born 18 February 1745 Como, Duchy of Milan Died 5 March 1827(1827 -03 -05) (aged 82) Como, Lombardy-Venetia
