Overview. In 1888 German physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857-1894) produced and detected electromagnetic waves in his laboratory. His goal was to verify some of the predictions about these waves that had been made by Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879). Of course, simply producing electromagnetic waves was not sufficient unless they ...
HERTZ, HEINRICH (1857–1894), German scientist. Heinrich Hertz's name has been given to a unit of frequency, an honor he received because he was the first person to produce electromagnetic waves (radio waves) artificially and to demonstrate that their behavior is similar to that of light (1886–1888). Hertz and most of his contemporaries ...
The first clearly successful attempt was by Heinrich Hertz in 1886. He used a high voltage induction coil to cause a spark discharge between two pieces of brass, to quote him, " Imagine a cylindrical brass body, 3 cm in diameter and 26 cm long, interrupted midway along its length by a spark gap whose poles on either side are formed by spheres ...
Heinrich Rudolf Hertz ( 22. února 1857 Hamburk – 1. ledna 1894 Bonn) byl německý fyzik, který experimentálně ověřil Maxwellovy a Faradayovy teoretické předpoklady o šíření elektromagnetických vln, a tím odstartoval cestu k vývoji bezdrátového spojení. Je po něm pojmenována jednotka pro frekvenci – Hz .
Heinrich Hertz. (1857–94). As the 19th century drew to a close, a number of important discoveries in the field of physics were made. One of them—the discovery of electromagnetic radiation—was the achievement of Heinrich Hertz, a German physicist. Hertz’s research paved the way for the development of radio, television, and radar.
