  2. Faraday paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_paradox

    The Faraday paradox or Faraday's paradox is any experiment in which Michael Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction appears to predict an incorrect result. The paradoxes fall into two classes: Faraday's law appears to predict that there will be zero electromotive force (EMF) but there is a non-zero EMF.

    Paradox of free choice: Disjunction introduction poses a problem for modal inferences, permitting arbitrary modal statements to be inferred. Paradox of entailment : Inconsistent premises always make an argument valid.

  4. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    Faraday's law was later generalized to become the Maxwell–Faraday equation, one of the four Maxwell equations in his theory of electromagnetism. Electromagnetic induction has found many applications, including electrical components such as inductors and transformers , and devices such as electric motors and generators .

    That means the paradox of different descriptions may be only semantic. A description that uses scalar and vector potentials φ and A instead of B and E avoids the semantical trap. A Lorentz-invariant four vector A α = (φ / c, A) replaces E and B [5] and provides a frame-independent description (albeit less visceral than the E– B ...

  6. Faraday paradox (electrochemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_paradox...

    The Faraday paradox was a once inexplicable aspect of the reaction between nitric acid and steel. Around 1830, the English scientist Michael Faraday found that diluted nitric acid would attack steel, but concentrated nitric acid would not. [1] The attempt to explain this discovery led to advances in electrochemistry.

    Mega (stylised as: MEGA) is a file hosting service offered by Mega Cloud Services Limited, a company based in Auckland, New Zealand, and owned by Hong Kong–based Cloud Tech Services Limited. [2] [3] The service is offered through web-based apps. MEGA mobile apps are also available for Android and iOS.

    Faraday disc. The first homopolar generator was developed by Michael Faraday during his experiments in 1831. It is frequently called the Faraday disc or Faraday wheel in his honor. It was the beginning of modern dynamos — that is, electrical generators which operate using a magnetic field.

    The primed frame is moving relative to the unprimed frame at velocity v. Fields defined in the primed frame are indicated by primes, and fields defined in the unprimed frame lack primes. The field components parallel to the velocity v are denoted by E ∥ and B ∥ while the field components perpendicular to v are denoted as E and B .
