Extractions: The English chemist and physicist Michael Faraday, b. Sept. 22, 1791, d. Aug. 25, 1867, is known for his pioneering experiments in electricity and magnetism. Many consider him the greatest experimentalist who ever lived. Several concepts that he derived directly from experiments, such as lines of magnetic force, have become common ideas in modern physics. Faraday was born at Newington, Surrey, near London. He received little more than a primary education, and at the age of 14 he was apprenticed to a bookbinder. There he became interested in the physical and chemical works of the time. After hearing a lecture by the famous chemist Humphry Davy, he sent Davy the notes he had made of his lectures. As a result Faraday was appointed, at the age of 21, assistant to Davy in the laboratory of the Royal Institution in London. During the initial years of his scientific work, Faraday occupied himself mainly with chemical problems. He discovered two new chlorides of carbon and succeeded in liquefying chlorine and other gases. He isolated benzene in 1825, the year in which he was appointed director of the laboratory. Davy, who had the greatest influence on Faraday's thinking, had shown in 1807 that the metals sodium and potassium can be precipitated from their compounds by an electric current, a process known as electrolysis. Faraday's vigorous pursuit of these experiments led in 1834 to what became known as Faraday's laws of electrolysis.

Extractions: (Information provided by the IEE Archives department.) Michael Faraday's scientific work laid the foundations of all subsequent electro-technology. From his experiments came devices which led directly to the modern electric motor, generator and transformer. Faraday was also the greatest scientific lecturer of his day, who did much to publicise the great advances of nineteenth-century science and technology through his articles, correspondence and the Friday evening discourses which he established at the Royal Institution. The Royal Institution Christmas lectures for children, begun by Faraday, continue to this day. Michael Faraday was born on 22nd September 1791. At the age of fourteen he was apprenticed to a London bookbinder. Reading many of the books in the shop, Faraday became fascinated by science, and wrote to Sir Humphry Davy at the Royal Institution asking for a job. On 1st March 1813, he was appointed laboratory assistant at the Royal Institution. There Faraday immersed himself in the study of chemistry, becoming a skilled analytical chemist. In 1823 he discovered that chlorine could be liquefied and in 1825 he discovered a new substance known today as benzene. However, his greatest work was with electricity. In 1821, soon after the Danish chemist, Oersted, discovered the phenomenon of electromagnetism, Faraday built two devices to produce what he called electromagnetic rotation: that is a continuous circular motion from the circular magnetic force around a wire. Ten years later, in 1831, he began his great series of experiments in which he discovered electromagnetic induction. These experiments form the basis of modern electromagnetic technology.

http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/SCfaraday.htm

Extractions: Michael Faraday , the son of a blacksmith, was born in London in 1791. He was apprenticed to a bookbinder and this contact with books gave him a love of reading. After becoming interested in science, Faraday applied to Humphry Davy for a job. In 1813 Faraday became his temporary assistant and spent the next 18 months touring Europe while during Davy's investigations into his theory of volcanic action. Davy gave Faraday a valuable scientific education and also introduced him to important scientists in Europe. After Humphry Davy retired in 1827, Faraday replaced him as professor of chemistry at the Royal Institution. Faraday began to publish details of his research including condensation of gases, optical deceptions and the isolation of benzene from gas oils.

Extractions: Send it to a friend! Michael Faraday was born on the 22nd September 1791, in Newington Butts, near London. His father, James, a blacksmith originated from Clapham, Yorkshire but moved to the city after marrying Faraday's mother, Margaret Hastwell, in 1786. Faraday apparently received no formal education. Instead, he worked as an errand boy for a bookbinder called Riebau. In 1804, aged 13, he was promoted to apprentice where he remained for 8 years. He found new work with another bookbinder called De La Roche. Throughout this time the books he worked with inspired an interest in science. An interest that was to initiate a life changing series of events. After a year of hard graft, Faraday was invited to accompany Davy and his wife on a European tour. Since the Napoleonic Wars were still in progress this required seeking a special dispensation from Napoleon. Pro-science, Napoleon agreed. In the autumn of 1813, travelling as Davy's amanuensis, Faraday set off on a trip that was to last 18 months. Though Davy's wife frequently treated Faraday like a servant, the trip proved to be an invaluable experience for the rising physicist. Travelling through France, Switzerland, Italy and Belgium, he met a large number of influential scientists, many of whom were to provide an important educational role in his life. It was also in Paris that Davy, with Faraday's help, discovered iodine from burnt seaweed.

He was largely self-taught, never thought too highly of himself but was essentially a very happy man. He is best known today for his research into electricity and magnetism. His reputation, in his own time, was based on his remarkable lecturing skills; the public at the time looked on electricity as a useful toy and was more interested in the more useful inventions of Stephenson and Joule. He was apprenticed to a bookbinder in 1805. Having attended a lecture by Humpray Davy , he presented Davy with a bound version of the lecture.

Extractions: Michael Faraday did not directly contribute to mathematics so should not really qualify to have his biography in this archive. However he was such a major figure and his science had such a large impact on the work of those developing mathematical theories that it is proper that he is included. We say more about this below. Faraday's father, James Faraday, was a blacksmith who came from Yorkshire in the north of England while his mother Margaret Hastwell, also from the north of England, was the daughter of a farmer. Early in 1791 James and Margaret moved to Newington Butts, which was then a village outside London, where James hoped that work was more plentiful. They already had two children, a boy Robert and a girl, before they moved to Newington Butts and Michael was born only a few months after their move. Work was not easy to find and the family moved again, remaining in or around London. By 1795, when Michael was around five years, the family were living in Jacob's Wells Mews in London. They had rooms over a coachhouse and, by this time, a second daughter had been born. Times were hard particularly since Michael's father had poor health and was not able to provide much for his family.

Extractions: Michael Faraday, -1867, English chemist and physicist known for his research into electricity and magnetism Faraday's interests were various: he studied the condensation of gases, metallurgy, optical illusions (including diamagnetism), acoustics, and the conservation of energy. His discoveries, many of groundbreaking importance, include induced electricity ( ), electrostatic induction ( ), the relationship between electricity and magnetism ( ) and between electricity and gravity ( ), hydroelectricity ( ), and atmospheric magnetism ( Faraday was fascinated by science even as a child. He mentioned the article on electricity in the third edition of the ) as an early influence: after reading it, he developed a simple electrostatic generator from lumber and old bottles and build a weak voltaic pile. He later attended one of Sir Humphry Davy 's popular lectures at the Royal Institution , which convinced him to pursue a scientific career. Faraday began his professional work in science as an assistant to Davy at the Institution in , and by had assumed Davy's chair of Chemistry at the Institution.

Extractions: Michael Faraday Faraday lived from 1791 to 1867 and is often considered to be the greatest experimentalist in the field of electricity and magnetism. He, along with others (such as Ohm, Volta, Coulomb, etc.) uncovered the relationships between the various experimental phenomena that lie at the foundation of the field. He championed the concept of magnetic "lines of force" to understand this body of work. About this time, Reimann and Guass noted the similarity between athe phenomena of electricity and magnetism and that of gravity and were able to quickly borrow the mathematics from celestial mechanics and apply them to electromagnetism. Faraday did not like the approach of these Germans but he was not adept enough at mathematics to challenge their position. So he explained his ideas to a young Scottish mathematician named James Clerk Maxwell. Author: Dan Thomas email:

http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blfaraday.htm

Extractions: British physicist and chemist, best known for his discoveries of electromagnetic induction and of the laws of electrolysis. Born in 1791 to a poor family in London, Michael Faraday was extremely curious, questioning everything. He felt an urgent need to know more. At age 13, he became an errand boy for a bookbinding shop in London. He read every book that he bound, and decided that one day he would write a book of his own. He became interested in the concept of energy, specifically force. Because of his early reading and experiments with the idea of force, he was able to make important discoveries in electricity later in life. He eventually became a chemist and physicist. Michael Faraday built two devices to produce what he called electromagnetic rotation: that is a continuous circular motion from the circular magnetic force around a wire. Ten years later, in 1831, he began his great series of experiments in which he discovered electromagnetic induction. These experiments form the basis of modern electromagnetic technology.
