James maxwell information in english

Born in 1980, James was raised until the age of seven in Kerikeri, a town with a population of a few thousand people near the northernmost tip of New Zealand. It was a tranquil place, where children went to school barefoot and he was able to roam unsupervised. He remembers wandering through orchards and pastures and discovering waterfalls hidden within lush forests – with no one for company other than his black Labrador and a few distant sheep. Economic forces spurred a change, and James’s family relocated to Brisbane, the third largest city in Australia. As always, James kept his head down and read books. He was the ‘boy with the book in his hands’, who developed a passion for fantasy and science fiction classics. He began to write his own stories at the age of nine. At eleven, he was writing lengthy fantasy novelettes, and attended his first writing workshop with published authors. The week-long young writers’ retreat was transformative. James saw that successful, published authors were ordinary people who were somehow able to create magic with words. The young writers would sit around a tree. They were asked: describe this tree; what kind of tree is it? Initially, the children would say ‘tall’ or ‘green’ or ‘leafy’. The authors persisted, and asked what kind of personality the tree had. What impression did it give? Is it ‘proud’? Is it ‘stern’? Is it ‘unyielding, mighty, and indomitable?’? Is it ‘angry’? Experiences like this opened James’s eyes to the power of language...

Nicholas Amendolare Nicholas Amendolare is a high school and middle school science teacher from Plymouth, Massachusetts. He has a bachelor's degree in environmental science from Worcester Polytechnic Institute and a master's degree in education from Harvard University. He has been a teacher for nine years, has written for TED-Ed, and is the founder of www.MrAscience.com. • Instructor James Clerk Maxwell was a 19th-century scientist who is most famous for his electromagnetic theory. In short, Maxwell discovered that the worlds of optics, magnetism, and electricity were inextricably linked. Visible light is simply a form of electromagnetic radiation that the human eye can detect. And there are also several invisible forms of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays. Maxwell's groundbreaking 1865 paper, titled "A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field," fundamentally changed the world of physics. His linking of magnetism and electricity has been called the "second great unification in physics," following only Sir Isaac Newton's linking of gravity and astronomy almost two-hundred years before. An 1890 portrait of James Clerk Maxwell.

One of several American actors who, particularly during the 1950's and 1960's, wound up making a living as an actor in England; the main difference between James Maxwell and, say, a William Sylvester is that Maxwell, instead of playing the token American, convincingly portrayed not only British characters, but often very British men with class and sophistication.

James Clerk Maxwell Biography James Maxwell was one of the world’s most influential physicists. In particular, he made great strides in helping to understand electromagnetism and produced a unified model of electromagnetism. His research in kinetics and electricity laid the foundations for modern Quantum mechanics and special relativity. “The work of James Clerk Maxwell changed the world forever.” – Albert Einstein Short Bio James Maxwell James Clerk Maxwell (13 June 1831 – 5 November 1879) James was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1831. From his early childhood, he displayed a natural inquisitiveness, always asking how things worked and moved as they did. When he was eight, his mother died, and his father John took responsibility for his upbringing along with his sister-in-law Jane. In 1841, he went to the Edinburgh Academy. He was a satisfactory student but took great interest in subjects outside the school syllabus, especially geometry, drawing and maths. At the age of 14, he wrote his first scientific paper (Oval Curves) In 1847, he moved to the University of Edinburgh where he studied classes on logic, mathematics, and natural philosophy. However, like at school, he was more interested in pursuing his own studies outside the curriculum. He investigated the properties of polarized light and prisms; he also began his early investigations into electric and magnetic equipment. Aged 18, he presented another two scientific papers – though as he was considered too young, it w...
