Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book looks back at two pioneering experiments conducted to determine the velocity of electromagnetic waves in a metal tube. The author, a student of physicist Heinrich Hertz, performed these experiments in the late 19th century, shortly after Hertz had announced the generation of electromagnetic waves and established their identity with light. The book explains how the experiments were conducted, what kind of apparatus was used and how the findings aligned with those of other scientists who were researching the topic concurrently. Beyond recounting the author's work, the book also positions the experiments within the historical context of that time, showcasing the rapid development and increasing understanding of electromagnetic waves during the period.
