General Sudirman was a high ranking Indonesian military officer during the Indonesian national revolution. He was the first commander-in-chief of the Indonesian Armed Forces, he continues to be widely respected in the country. On 12 November 1945, at an election to decide the military’s commander-in-chief in YogyakartA. The 24 years old Sudirman was chosen over Oerip Soemohardjo in a close votE. While waiting to be confirmed, Sudirman ordered an assault on British and Dutch forces in AmbarawA. The ensuing battle and British withdrawal strengthened Sudirman’s popular support, and he was ultimately confirmed on 18 December. General Sudirman commanded military activities throughout Java, including a show of force in Yogyakarta on 1 March 1949. When the Dutch began withdrawing, in July 1949 Sudirman was recalled to Yogyakarta and forbidden to fight further. In late 1949 Sudirman’s tuberculosis returned, and he retired to Magelang, where he died slightly more than a month after the Dutch recognised Indonesia’s independencE. He is buried at Semaki Heroes’ Cemetery in Yogyakarta.

Luis Lionel Andres Messi, born June 24th, 1987, is an Argentinian football player for F.C BarcelonA. He is not very tall, mainly, due to the growing problem he had when he was younger. His eyes are brown. He never has short hair.
Lionel Messi started playing football at a very early age in his hometown’s Newell’s Old Boys. From the age of 11, he suffered from a hormone deficiency and as Lionel’s parents were unable to pay for the treatment in Argentina, they decided to move to Barcelona, Spain.
In the 2003-2004 season, when he was still only 16 years old, Messi made his first team debut in a friendly with Porto that marked the opening of the new Dragao stadium. The following championship-winning season, Messi made his first appearance in an official match on October 16th, 2004, in Barcelona’s derby win against Espanyol at the Olympic Stadium 0-1.. And now, in 2010, 2011, and 2012 he is best player in the world.

Faraday studied the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a DC electric current. While conducting these studies, Faraday established the basis for the electromagnetic field concept in physics, subsequently enlarged upon by James Maxwell. He similarly discovered electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and laws of electrolysis. He established that magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the two phenomenA. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became viable for use in technology.
As a chemist, Michael Faraday discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the Bunsen burner and the system of oxidation numbers, and popularized terminology such as anode, cathode, electrode, and ion.
Although Faraday received little formal education and knew little of higher mathematics, such as calculus, he was one of the most influential scientists in history. Historians of science refer to him as the best experimentalist in the history of sciencE. The SI unit of capacitance, the farad, is named after him, as is the Faraday constant, the charge on a mole of electrons (about 96,485 coulombs). Faraday’s law of induction states that magnetic flux changing in time creates a proportional electromotive force.
Faraday was the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, a position to which he was appointed for life.
Albert Einstein kept a photograph of Faraday on his study wall alongside pictures of Isaac Newton and James Clerk Maxwell.
Faraday was highly religious. He was a member of the Sandemanian Church, a Christian sect founded in 1730 that demanded total faith and commitment. Biographers have noted that a strong sense of the unity of God and nature pervaded Faraday’s life and work.

Faraday mempelajari medan magnet di sekitar konduktor yang membawa arus listrik DC. Saat melakukan studi ini, Faraday menetapkan dasar untuk konsep medan elektromagnetik dalam fisika, yang kemudian diperbesar oleh James Maxwell. Dia juga menemukan induksi elektromagnetik, diamagnetisme, dan hukum elektrolisis. Dia menetapkan bahwa magnet dapat mempengaruhi sinar cahaya dan bahwa ada hubungan yang mendasari antara dua fenomena. Penemuannya dari perangkat rotary elektromagnetik membentuk fondasi teknologi motor listrik, dan itu sebagian besar karena usahanya bahwa listrik menjadi layak untuk digunakan dalam teknologi.
Sebagai seorang ahli kimia, Michael Faraday menemukan benzena, meneliti hidrat klatrat dari klorin, menemukan bentuk awal dari pembakar Bunsen dan sistem bilangan oksidasi, dan terminologi populer seperti anoda, katoda, elektroda, dan ion.
Meskipun Faraday menerima sedikit pendidikan formal dan tahu sedikit matematika yang lebih tinggi, seperti kalkulus, dia adalah salah satu ilmuwan paling berpengaruh dalam sejarah. Sejarawan sains menyebut dia sebagai eksperimentalis terbaik dalam sejarah sciencE. Satuan SI dari kapasitansi, farad, dinamai menurut namanya, seperti juga konstanta Faraday, muatan pada satu mol elektron (sekitar 96,485 coulomb). Hukum induksi Faraday menyatakan bahwa perubahan fluks magnetik dalam waktu menciptakan kekuatan elektromotif proporsional.
Faraday adalah Profesor Kimia Fullerian pertama dan terkemuka di Royal Institution of Great Britain, posisi yang ia diangkat untuk hidup.
Albert Einstein menyimpan foto Faraday di dinding studinya bersama foto Isaac Newton dan James Clerk Maxwell.
Faraday sangat religius. Dia adalah anggota Gereja Sandemanian, sebuah sekte Kristen yang didirikan pada 1730 yang menuntut iman dan komitmen total. Para biografer telah mencatat bahwa rasa kesatuan Tuhan dan alam yang kuat meliputi kehidupan dan pekerjaan Faraday.

5. What was Michael Faraday expert?
A. science, history and religion

C. electronic, technology and religion
D. chemistry, physic and mathematics
