Shi Xiong is not excited.

Although he was a liberal arts student in his previous life, as a hegemonic student, he has really dabbled in other subjects. Some subjects may not be studied in depth, but Shixiong still understands some basic things.

For example, the radio communication that has plagued Shixiong for a long time allowed Shi Xiong to fully understand the true meaning of the phrase "when the book is used, he hates less."

One of the brothers who shared the dormitory at Shixiong University was a member of their university’s radio club. Shixiong usually heard a lot of things from him, but it was a pity that Shixiong was not very interested in radio at that time, so he just remembered Some very basic things.

But this does not prevent Shi Xiong from knowing some famous historical figures in radio or electromagnetics.

Like Muhinbrock of Leiden University in the Netherlands and Kleist of Germany who invented the "Leiden bottle" that can store electric charges; like Benjamin Franklin who risked his life to conduct the famous kite experiment and study the phenomenon of electric discharge. .

That's right, this Franklin is one of the "Three Greatest Founders" of the United States, and the one printed on the one-hundred dollar bill that people all over the world like...

In addition, like Coulomb, Ohm, Ampere, Faraday, Hertz, Maxwell...

It is the unremitting efforts of these great scientists that let mankind finally know and finally master the communication method of radio communication, as well as the specialized subject of electromagnetics.

Because these famous scientists are all characters in the textbooks of elementary and middle schools, they are familiar to later generations of Chinese people. However, in history, there are some people who are far less famous than these people, but whose actual contributions are very huge. For example, the Henry Cavendish that Shixiong asked just now is one of them.

Cavendish did not enter Huaxia's primary and secondary school textbooks like Cullen and Ohm, so few people in later generations of Huaxia have heard of this name. But in the Western world, Cavendish’s name is a big name in the scientific world.

Stone Xiong didn’t know the name in his previous life, but his brother in the same room often mentioned it in front of him, so Stone Xiong looked for information about this Cavendish out of curiosity and read it. As a result, From this look, Stone Bear also regarded Henry Cavendish as an idol like the brother in the same bedroom.

In Shixiong's eyes, in terms of British Henry Cavendish's contribution to mankind, his name can definitely be preceded by the word "great".

The surname Cavendish sounds like a rich and handsome name. In fact, he is indeed a rich and handsome man, and a man with social phobia. The most important thing is that he is also a genius scientist. In the Western world, he is hailed as the greatest Britain since Newton. the scientist.

If you don’t know the rich man’s experience, you would never have imagined that there would be so many "world firsts" in him, and these "world firsts" span physics, chemistry, astronomy and meteorology. Areas.

Well, many examples can be cited in this regard. For example, when we first stepped into the junior high school chemistry laboratory, the chemical experiment our teacher showed us must be a hydrogen-oxygen water production experiment, and the first person to do this experiment was Henry Cavendish. At the same time, he was also the first person in the world to purify hydrogen.

These are some examples in chemistry, and in physics, he also has many "world firsts".

For example, Newton discovered the law of universal gravitation, and Cavendish was the first person in the world to determine the constant "G" of universal gravitation!

Because he determined the gravitational constant, he was the first person in the world to "precisely weigh" the earth. That's right, this guy accurately calculated the weight of the earth in the late eighteenth century!

Although the gravitational constant calculated by Cavendish is not as accurate as that of later generations, the error is only about 0.65%. Don't forget, when Cavendish calculated the gravitational constant in the late eighteenth century, not the precise gravitational constant calculated by later generations using various sophisticated instruments! It was already a very, very remarkable feat to be able to calculate such an accurate gravitational constant at that time.

In addition, people in later generations believed that Coulomb's law should be proposed by Coulomb, and Ohm's law was proposed by Ohm. But in fact, this thing is wrong!

Cavendish published very few papers in physics during his lifetime. It was not until Maxwell reviewed and published Cavendish's manuscript that he had made many important discoveries in electricity. For example, Coulomb's law and Ohm's law are actually based on Cavendish's research. In other words, Cavendish had actually made research results in this area long before Coulomb's law and Ohm's law were discovered.

It was the same reason. The rich and handsome man had a very serious social phobia, which caused a lot of his theoretical research to be hidden by himself.

Cavendish's background is very noble, his father is the fifth son of the famous II Duke of Devonshire!

Because there is a grandfather of a wealthy duke, Cavendish is also a wealthy figure. He does not need to worry about money, nor does he need to participate in social activities to waste time, so Cavendish can spend all his energy Put it on scientific research. But it is precisely for this reason that he suffered from severe social phobia during his long-term scientific research.

Cavendish’s social fear has almost reached the level of autism. He hardly participates in any social activities. The only activity he regularly participates in is a science and technology initiated by a famous British naturalist after his reputation. party. But even at a party, he would never speak, he just stayed in a safe place by himself.

However, there were many people who admired him at the time~lightnovelpub.net~ When these people wanted to communicate scientific issues with Cavendish, they would walk near Cavendish, and then face the other direction towards Air speaks out his problem.

If Cavendish heard this question, he would mutter to himself very quietly. If you try to talk to him face-to-face, you are likely to scare him away.

Similarly, Cavendish cherishes his words like gold after returning home, and he never talks to his domestic servant who has been taking care of him since he was a child. When he has something to say to the servant, he usually uses the method of handing over a note, and he cherishes words like gold.

But it is such a person who is close to autism who has made such a great achievement in the scientific community. After understanding this, the stone bear in the previous life really admires this Cavendish.

And the Geddy Roy that Hank found was actually able to help Cavendish for many years, which shows that this guy definitely has a few brushes in his stomach!

Then this person is here, plus what he knows about electromagnetism, what if he accidentally makes the radio thing out...
