Heinrich Hertz, a German physicist, is renowned for conclusively demonstrating the existence of electromagnetic waves as anticipated by James Clerk Maxwell’s electromagnetism equations. His pioneering work resulted in the unit of frequency, cycle per second, being named the “Hertz” in his tribute. Hertz’s investigations and experiments in electromagnetism made a substantial impact on the evolution of contemporary communication technologies and laid the groundwork for further progress in physics and engineering.
