Resumo(s)
Some experimentation with magnets was beginning in the late 19th century. By then reliable batteries had been developed and the electric current was recognized as a stream of charge particles. Maxwell developed a set of equations expressing the basic laws of electricity and magnetism, and demonstrated that these two phenomena are complementary aspects of electromagnetism. He showed that electric and magnetic fields travel through space, in the form of waves, at a constant velocity. Maxwell is generally regarded as the nineteenth century scientist who had the greatest influence on twentieth century physics, making contributions to the fundamental models of nature. Bearing these ideas in mind, in this study we apply the concept of fractional calculus and some aspects of electromagnetism, to the static electric potential, and we develop a new fractional order approximation method to the electrical potential.
