speeds from the 1970’s to 2009 and then again in 2010, one may think that the law has reached its limit or is nearing the limit. In the 1970’s processor speeds ranged from 740 KHz to 8MHz; notice that the 740 KHz, which is Kilo Hertz- while the 8 is MHz, which is Mega Hertz. From 2000-2009 there has not really been much of speed difference as the speeds ranged from 1.3 GHz to 2.8 GHz, which suggests that the speeds have barely doubled within a 10 year span. This is because we are looking at the

Rudolf Hertz, James Clerk Maxwell, David E. Hughes, Thomas Edison, and Nikola Tesha and much more others took a part in this invention. In 1800s, a physicist from Scotland had predicted radio waves then after this another physicist from Germany actually proved the existence of radio waves. He showed that waves are same as light or heat waves. Then, the invention of telegraphy with wireless technology took place. In 1860s James Clerk Maxwell predicted the existence of radio waves, Heinrich Hertz demonstrated

Capacitive Reactance In the RC Network tutorial we saw that when a DC voltage is applied to a capacitor, the capacitor itself draws a charging current from the supply and charges up to a value equal to the applied voltage. Likewise, when the supply voltage is reduced the charge stored in the capacitor also reduces and the capacitor discharges. In an AC circuit in which the applied voltage signal is continually changing from a positive to a negative polarity at a rate determined by the frequency
