Is James Clerk Maxwell dead

Answer 1

James Clerk Maxwell is more than dead, I'd suspect his body is fully decomposed by now.

James Clerk Maxwell died in Cambridge, England, on the 5th November 1879, which is over 130 years ago.

He died of abdominal cancer at the age of 48.

Answer 2

James Clerk Maxwell did many things in science. His most famous achievement was predicting that light was an electromagnetic wave. Maxwell was an assistant to Faraday in providing a mathematical formulation of Faraday's laws. Faraday had no formulas in his works but he was the leading Physicist.

Maxwell's Equations predicted that Light was a form of electromagnetic waves. Maxwell and Weber both noticed that electromagnetic waves moved at the speed of light. Weber saw it as a coincidence, Maxwell with his equations saw them as the same thing.

Answer 3

He died of Abdominal cancer.
