John Finds Out

Piece of cake.

When Georg Ohm was experimenting with electricity, he knew about the researches of Volta, Ampere, and Galvani. He knew the history of electricity back to Franklin and before. He knew that there was potential, and flow, and limits to the flow that could be detected qualitively. But no one had standardized the units of measure,…

Not a misspelling. I’m talking about the principal people involved in figuring out how electricity worked originally. How did Volta, Ampere, Franklin, and the others (the principals) discover the principles of electricity, and in the process, volts, amperes, and ohms? One of the things I wanted to find out: Imagine you’re Georg Ohm, in the…

First post. Nothing earth-shattering here. Just basically, “Here I am.” Having the first post over-and-done with reduces the pressure on follow-up posts. I hope you all enjoy this blog, and the forthcoming YouTube channel.
