Micheal Faraday

English scientist Michael Faraday FRS made a substantial contribution to electrochemistry and electromagnetism. Thanks to his contributions, Michael Faraday is considered one of the most famous people of the Victoria Era.

He created electromagnetic induction in the year 1831 AD, which served as the foundation for electric transformers and generators. This discovery was essential in changing electricity from a curious new technology to a potent new one.

For the remainder of the decade, he concentrated on expanding his ideas on electricity. As a result, the terms "electrode," "cathode," and "ion" were created.

In addition, because of his last name, the term "farad," which was originally used to describe an electrical charge unit, was later referred to as an electrical capacitance unit.
