Scientists in Electricity
Across
- 2. Franklin/ Developed the "lighting rod" with no real epistemic knowledge.
- 4. Galvani/ Found the existence of animal electricity or the electrical basis of nerve impulses.
- 6. Hauksbee/ Found in early 1700s that spinning a glass globe produced electricity which was one of the first electrical generators.
- 9. Volta/ Invented the first voltaic cell.
- 10. Gray/ Found with Granville Wheeler that electricity could be communicated over long distances by contact.
Down
- 1. Marie/ Showed the force between current was inversely proportional, as well as the distance between them. Additionally, the "Electrodynamic molecule".
- 3. Faraday/ Invented electromagnetic motors with "electromagnetic rotation".
- 5. Ohm/ Discovered that electrical current between 2 points is directly proportional to the voltage, or potential difference between them.
- 7. Clerk Maxwell/ Theorized that electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light, and that light must exist in the same medium as electrical and magnetic energy.
- 8. Christian Ørested/ Showed that electric current produce neatly circular magnetic fields when they follow though wires. (Ørested law.
