Maxwell's equations are a set of four fundamental equations that describe the behavior of electromagnetic fields. They were developed by James Clerk Maxwell in the 19th century and are considered one of the most important contributions to the field of physics. The equations describe the relationship between electric and magnetic fields, how these fields interact with charges and currents, and how electromagnetic waves propagate through space. They have wide-ranging applications, from understanding how light and radio waves are generated and propagate, to designing modern technologies like cell phones and computers.
