Which equations did Hertz's experiments confirm?
Einstein's theories
Newton's laws
Maxwell's equations
Bohr's model
Answer
Maxwell's equations, a set of four partial differential equations, describe the behavior of electric and magnetic fields. Hertz's experiments confirmed these equations by demonstrating the existence of electromagnetic waves, which are predicted by the equations. These waves travel at the speed of light and can be reflected, refracted, and diffracted, just like light waves.
