This physicist's namesake effect revealed a connection between optics and electromagnetism and is also known as magnetically induced circular birefringence.
This physicist's namesake effect revealed a connection between optics and electromagnetism and is also known as magnetically induced circular birefringence. In an experiment named for him, a charged sphere lowered into an uncharged ice pail induces an equal and opposite charge on the ice pail. That experiment is the basis behind his namesake (*) cage. His most well-known law includes a minus sign as a consequence of induced electric current flowing in such a direction as to oppose the change that induced it. That law states that induced emf is equal to the negative time derivative of magnetic flux. For 10 points, name this physicist who names a law of induction and the SI unit of capacitance.
