Need the mathematics to show gaussian border with radiators and a time varying field equals Maxwells law?

I suggest you Google it or log onto Physics.org. If only it was that easy.I doubt that anybody has ever done it! Both are in different units for a start


What types of waves don't need a medium?

All waves of the EM. spectrum e.g. Radio waves Microwaves Light waves X-rays Gamma rays Cosmic Rays etc. Technically gravity waves and a couple other waves that relate to inter- and extra- atomic bonds


What are ways to describe a wave?

Waves can be described by:frequency/periodspeedintensitywavelengthamplitudepressureshapedecibelsHertzphonssonesmelsIf you are looking for adjectives that can be used to illustrate or depict a wave, I suggest you ask another question with the type of wave you're looking to describe (soundwave, ocean wave, Miss America's wave, wave of emotion, waves in my hair, a sway, radio wave, light wave, electromagnetic wave, etc.)


What effect does gravity have on light?

Yes! It is even measurable. Einstein was the first to suggest this mathematically, and scientists have since proven this experimentally and in the real world - thus the discovery and identification of Black Holes in space. Gravity has the ability to bend light waves (thus begging the question - is light energy or matter - and thus described as both photons and waves. Photons would suggest characteristics of matter, and waves suggest characteristics of energy.)

Do black holes form in galaxies with high electromagnetic fields?

No. There is no evidence to suggest that any galaxy has an abnormally strong electromagnetic field. Black holes are a consequence of gravitational collapse, not electromagnetism. They usually form when a star above a certain mass collapses.

Who predicted neutrons 12 years before their existence?

Nobody did. Neutrons have always existed. Earnest Rutherford suggest neutrons might exist about 11 years before their existence was proven.


What is the only object that isn't matter?

I suggest electromagnetic radiation. There is anti-matter, but this is really another form of matter, and I guess you want something entirely separate from matter.
