    Meilleure citation de Maxwell's Equations Explained for Kids: Simple Physics Analogies

    “

    Light isn't just 'stuff,' it’s electricity and magnetism in motion—a self-sustaining cycle where a wiggling electric field creates a magnetic wiggle, which then turns around and creates an electric wiggle, pushing each other through space in an eternal game of catch.
