19th Century Developments
- Thermodynamics: The study of heat and energy led to the formulation of the laws of thermodynamics, with key figures like Sadi Carnot and Rudolf Clausius contributing to our understanding of energy transfer.
- Electromagnetism: James Clerk Maxwell unified electricity and magnetism in the 19th century through his equations, paving the way for modern physics and technologies.
- Kinetic Theory: The kinetic theory of gases, developed by scientists like Ludwig Boltzmann, explained gas behavior in terms of molecular motion.
