Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790) is familiar to most measurements of radial velocities for galaxies, providing people as one of the Founding Fathers of the United the empirical basis for the expansion of the universe. States. He was an author, printer, political theorist, politician, postmaster, scientist, inventor, statesman, André-Marie Ampère and diplomat. He invented the following: was a French physicist and mathematician who was one of the founders of the science of classical The lightning rod electromagnetism, which he referred to as Bifocals "electrodynamics". The Franklin stove A carriage odometer Descartes The glass “armonica” (a popular musical discarded tradition and to an extent supported the instrument of the day) same method as Francis Bacon, but with emphasis on rationalization and logic rather than upon experiences. Hans Christian Ørsted In physical theory his doctrines were formulated as a was a Danish physicist and chemist who discovered that compromise between his devotion to Roman electric currents create magnetic fields, which the first Catholicism and his commitment to the scientific connection was found between electricity and method, which met opposition in the church officials of magnetism. He is still known today for Oersted's Law the day. He made numerous advances in optics, such as and the oersted his study of the reflection and refraction of light.
ALBERT EINSTEIN Jean-Baptiste Lamarck
best known for his contributions to evolution,. While Perhaps the most well-known physicist in the popular working with fossils at the Museum of Natural History, mind is Albert Einstein (1879–1955 Lamarck noticed that species seem to change over time. He wrote a book in 1801 entitled Theory of Inheritance The special and general theories of relativity of Acquired Characteristics, where he said an organism The founding of relativistic cosmology could pass on the traits he acquired during his life. The explanation of the perihelion precession of Mercury, which is the gradual rotation of the Michael Faraday axis of the elliptical orbit of the planet was an English scientist who contributed to the study of The prediction of the deflection of light by electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His main gravity (gravitational lensing) discoveries include the principles underlying The first fluctuation dissipation theorem, which electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and explained the Brownian motion of molecules, electrolysis. which is the random jittery motion of small James Clerk Maxwell particles suspended in a fluid, which is caused was one of the greatest scientists of the nineteenth by collisions with the molecules of the fluid century. He is best known for the formulation of the The photon theory theory of electromagnetism and in making the Wave-particle duality connection between light and electromagnetic waves. The quantum theory of atomic motion in solids
CHARLES-AUGUSTIN DE COULOMB
Charles-Augustin de Coulomb (1736–1806) is best
known for developing Coulomb’s law, which defines the electrostatic force of attraction or repulsion between charges. In fact, the MKS unit of charge, the coulomb (C), was named after him.
