Essays on Magnetism

Continental drift is the theory which proposes that the world was originally made up of a single continent. With the passage of time, this continent was broken up, and it drifted apart to form the seven continents that are present today. It was proposed by Alfred Wegener whose hypothesis stands that the continents are made up of rocks that rest on the heavier weighing rocks on the crust, and this is a movement that is mimicked by icebergs on water. The continents move rigidly. Plate tectonics theory proposes that the Earth’s surface is actually broken up into a ...

This video highlights the development of theory of interaction of electricity with magnetism. A number of scientists were involved in understanding, interpreting and validating electromagnetism with simple experiments involving current and magnetic elements. During September 1820, Ampere investigated magnetic effects of repulsion/attraction between like/unlike poles. He developed theory of electro-dynamics related to magnetism as interaction of current elements. Laplace was skeptical of his ideas while some other scientists like Fernel started thinking on converse patterns. Some other scientists like Jean Fernel focused on theory of production of electricity by magnetism and production of currents in conducting metals. Jean Fernel ...

In order to understand the relationship between light, magnetism and electricity, it is necessary to understand electromagnetism force, since this is the basis upon which the relationship is embarked on. In this essence, it should be noted that it is impossible to have electricity, in the absence of magnetism. This is because electricity conduction is only achieved through magnetic transmission. Electricity, to start with, is the energy charge that is transmitted through the flow of electrons through a conducting agent from one point to the next. This is referred to as an electric current. One of the most essential things ...

Magnetism is the ability of a material to exhibit attraction or repulsion of certain magnetic materials due to the presence of magnetic fields. Magnetism may be permanent or temporary depending on whether a material is a hard or soft magnetic material. Magnetism arises from the existence of small atom-like structures referred to as magnetic domains that, when aligned, cause the effect of magnetism to be pronounced in a magnetic material (Huebener, 135). Magnetism depends on the alignment of domains and in the same direction. As such, increase in temperatures results in increased random movement of domains, and hence affecting their alignment. On ...
