Here is the fifty-third episode of Quantum Foam, Electromagnetism. We want to go over certain subjects in order to have prerequisites met for higher-level topics. Electromagnetism is the branch of physics that studies the interactions between electric charges and the resulting electric and magnetic fields unifying electricity, magnetism, and light into a single framework. The electromagnetic field is 1 of the 4 fundamental forces of nature. There are 3 subdivisions, electrostatics, magnetostatics, and electrodynamics. Electric forces allow different atoms to combine into molecules. Magnetic moments also play a role in chemical reactivity. Electromagnetism plays a role in modern technology. This is a fundamental subject that is known to be correct. Albert Einstein said that he stood on the shoulders of James Clerk Maxwell. Quantum Electrodynamics modifies Maxwell's equations to be consistent with the quantized nature of matter. An electromagnetic field is a physical field varying in space and time that represents the electric and magnetic influences generated by acting on electric charges. Any point in space can be categorized by an electric field and a magnetic field in flux. This is an electromagnetic wave. It is sometimes useful to describe electromagnetic fields in terms of potential energy and momentum. Electrostatics is the branch of physics that studies slow moving or stationery electric charges on macroscopic objects where quantum effects can be neglected. Magnetostatics is the study of magnetic fields in systems where the currents are steady and not changing with time. There is a connection with this area of micromagnetostatics and our flash memory that is used on today's linear computers. Classical electromagnetism was developed between 1820 and 1873.
Electromagnetism is a science of charge and of the forces and fields associated with charge. Electricity and magnetism are 2 aspects of electromagnetism. In 1905, General Relativity established without a doubt that electromagnetism describes electric and magnetic phenomena. Electrical and magnetic forces can be detected in regions called electric and magnetic fields. These fields are fundamental in nature and can exist in space far from the charge or current that generated them. James Maxwell showed that electric and magnetic fields travel together through space as waves of electromagnetic radiation. His equations provide a complete and elegant description of electromagnetism down to, but not including the subatomic scale. Electromagnetic forces have been combined into a common force called the electroweak force. Putting all the forces into 1 grand unified theory has not been achieved to date. An important aspect of electromagnetism is the science of electricity, which is concerned with the behavior of aggregates of charge including the distribution of charge within matter and the motion of charge from place to place. Voltage is the measure of the propensity of charge to flow from one place to another. When a light bulb is switched on, a current flows through a thin filament in the bulb. The current heats the filament to such a high temperature that it glows, illuminating its surroundings. Charge is a basic property of matter. Most bulk matter has a net positive and negative charge balance. Charges repel each other. The principle of charge conservation is a fundamental law of nature. The charge of an isolated system cannot change. Electric and magnetic forces are caused by electromagnetic fields. The term field denotes a property of space so that the field quantity has a numerical value at each point in space. These values may also vary with time.
Finally, there exists a podcast that covers it all! The Quantum Foam Podcast Show can be thought of as a clever and informative mix between "Bill Nye The Science Guy, Rick & Morty, and The Big Bang Theory!"
It seems the idea of the prestigous 'Theory of Everything' has been in the air lately. Join Dr. Hezekiah Paul Smith as he takes a systematic assessment of Physics, Mathematics, and Science as a whole. This show is an Artificial Intelligence approach attempting to explain ALL scientific phenomena across the board! Listen to some the greatest thinkers of all time during the in-depth evaluation of the natural sciences.
Prepare to enjoy a radical and uncensored podcast, Quantum Foam, featuring characters presented as real, animated A. I. entities. Brought to you by Zerothwave Productions.

Quantum Foam is a new podcast with absolutely ridiculous content covering almost all topics relating to science across the board. The idea of achieving the famous Theory of Everything seems to be in the air lately. Such an idea can then be presented as episodes of Quantum Foam in an audio podcast form that will serve to bond together the very powerful and insightful ideas, concepts, and realizations of Physics as a professional discipline. Unifying Relativity and Quantum Mechanics never seemed so . . . possible? Quantum Foam finds its focus directly pointing at the most accepted scientific thought in this day in the beginning of the Information Age. These areas include String Theory, Loop Quantum Gravity, Einstein's famous General Theory of Relativity, Cosmology, Advanced Mathematical Theory, and much more.
Information technology and innovation are at a point where each presently require a Quantum Leap in order to move forward to the next phase. This process, while imperative, is still quite a sophisticated discipline in and of itself. Many will need to satisfactorily understand Quantum Computing and Uncertainty in general very early on. Why not take such a daunting task and turn it into something fun, provocative, and ridiculous instead? And this can be done while still holding strict guidelines in accuracy and application. Enjoy learning about math and physics in a completely free-form manner with no filters, no agendas, un-cut, and raw! We will not be censoring any vulger cursing or other inappropriate references, yet unwanted racial and sexual references etc. will not be included.
Each episode is exactly 30 minutes long and each follow a standard structure. There is an intro stating the title and topic, followed by the Quantum Foam theme song, Physics of the Future, by H-Wave. Then at exactly 15 minutes into the podcast show, there is a mid-point section to keep the listener fresh and to remind which episode is currently streaming. At the end of the podcast, the last 30 seconds, the standard Zerothwave Disclaimer is played. An expanded version of this disclaimer can be found here.
Zerothwave Productions currently is releasing the show on its own website using its state-of-the-art online waveform player platform. Listen to the podcast at actual 320 kbps .mp3 streaming audio right here at Zerothwave.com! The Quantum Foam podcast will likely also be released elsewhere on other platforms soon as well. XML RSS feeds are an old technology but is still in heavy use today. The Zerothwave.com website will be upgrading hosting servers steadily over the next decade and beyond to bring you the highest quality audio possible. Stay tuned for more content!
