Father of Modern Physics
Albert Einstein, known as the father of modern Physics. In his early years, he began to understand deductive reasoning and later Euclidian geometry, paving way for his investigation of infinitesimal calculus.
When he was 16, he visualised travelling alongside a beam of light.
Especially, he clarified the theory of relativity by saying," You sit on a hot stove for two minutes, and it feels like two hours; you sit with a pretty girl for two hours, and it seems like two minutes.
Education
In 1896, he continued his education at Aarau, Switzerland in Swiss Federal Polytechnic School,Zurich, as a teacher in physics and mathematics.
In 1901, he had his diploma and acquired Swizz citizenship. He wasn't able to find a teaching job; thus he was a technical assistant in the Swizz Patent Office.
In 1905, he obtained his doctor's degree. he became a German citizen (1914-1933) as he renounced his citizenship for political reasons and thus traveled to America and took up the positions of Professor of Theoretical Physics at Princeton.
He became a United States citizen in 1940 and retired from his post in 1945.
Scientific Work
He had early speech difficulties.it was maxed Talmud, who guided Einstein in science, philosophy, and mathematics for 6 years.
He is known for his theories of relativity (special and general). A Nobel prize in 1921 was given to him in physics for his contribution to theoretical physics (photoelectric effect).
According to his father's wishes, he proceeded to pursue electrical engineering but opposing the method of teaching and restriction on creativity and imagination.
In the midst of this, he wrote his first scientific work on magnetic fields. The chemical element 99, einsteinium , was named for him in August 1955.
Family life
Einstein's idea of relaxation was music. He married Mileva Maric in 1903, and they had a daughter and two sons ; their marriage was dissolved in 1919.
In the same year, he married his cousin, Elsa Löwenthal, who died in 1936.He died on April 18, 1955, at Princeton , New Jersey.
Einstein Refrigerator
In 1926, Einstein and Leò Szilard invented the Einstein refrigerator and got its patent in 1930. It had no moving part, and he had heat as an input.
Einstein's Brain
After his death, his brain was removed and was kept in a jar of formaldehyde for 43 yrs to conduct an autopsy.
Einstein had a dense brain and a relatively large parietal lobe, which shows excellence with mathematical skills.
His brain was divided into 240 sections. His brain was 15% wider than the average brain.
Einstein Bomb
On August 6, 1945 , Hiroshima was devastated by the atomic bomb. When tracing the roots of the creation of the atomic bomb.
Many people come to the conclusion that Einstein was responsible for it because of his famous energy-mass formula, E=mc2. However, Einstein created the formula that provided the foundation for the creation of the atomic bomb.
It was the way in which other physicists interpreted and manipulated Einstein's work to create what would launch us into the atomic age : the atomic bomb.
In fact, contrary to popular belief, the truth is that Einstein was not the father of the bomb.
