ALBERT EINSTEIN

ALBERT EINSTEIN
Albert Einstein was born March 14, 1879 in Germany. His family owned a small business
that manufactured electric machinery. The business failed and they left Germany. Albert
was fifteen years old and he dropped out of school.
When Albert was five when he received his first compass and he began to investigate the
world. Little did he know that that compass would make him famous. By the age of ten he
becomes so fascinated by the world of science he self-educates himself to learn as much
as possible.
Albert then went to a secondary school in Switzerland. Albert felt that the academics and
education were not satisfying enough so he started cutting his classes and used all his
free time to learn about physics. He had learned so much that his career had already
taken off without him even realizing it yet.
He became a substitute teacher and an actor until 1902 when he secured a position as an
examiner in a Swiss patent office. Not long after he married Mileva Maric and had two
sons.
1905 was the biggest year for Einstein. It is called his Miracle Year. He published a
paper on the Brownian Motion and the seminal papers on his theory of relativity. He
received his doctrine from the University of Zurich for a theoretical dissertation of
molecules. He published three very important papers to twentieth century physics.
The first paper on Brownian motion made significant predictions on the motion of
particles that are randomly distributed in a fluid, which were later proved by an
experiment 
The second paper on Photoelectric effect presented a hypothesis on the nature of light.
He proposed that under certain circumstances light could be considered a particles. He
also hypothesized that the energy carried by a photon is depositional to the frequency of
radiation. The formula E= HU proves this. Virtually no one accepted this theory but
thought differently when Robert Andrews Millikan proved it.
The third paper was on electrodynamics of moving bodies. It became known as the theory of
relativity. It explains how matter and radiation interact with one another.
With these well thought out papers Albert Einstein had solved the unanswered problems of
the world. He wanted to learn more and began to try and answer the questions of the
universe.
In 1939 Einstein connected with other scientists and wrote a letter to the president,
Franklin D. Roosevelt pointing out the possibility of making an atomic bomb. Albert
signed the letter and the sent it off. That is when the first atomic bomb was ever made.
Albert Einstein died 1n 1955 but during his lifetime he filled so many blanks about our
universe.
Albert Einstein had a huge positive impact on history. He changed the confused minds of
people and answered their questions. He dedicated his life to science and because of him
our world has started to come together. Without him scientists would still be trying to
figure out the speed of light, relativity, elements mass.... Etc. He educated the world
and encouraged more people to learn about the natures of earth.
The biggest thing Albert Einstein did was he discovered the connection between energy and
mass through the famous equation of E= MC2. Einstein's famous speech about this equation
states that mass and energy are both different manifestations of the same thing.
This equation helped the world today and will continue to do so. Einstein was a great
scientist with a brilliant mind. Everyone uses the knowledge that Einstein created even
if we don't realize it. We know the speed of light, which helps us, because we can have
more of it and it follows along with the speed of sound and relativity. Einstein has done
many good things and has helped our world tremendously. If he did not dedicate his life
to science then all our minds would be overflowing with the unanswered questions of the
world.
Also because of him our technology has improved. We have telephones and computers and
televisions and all the electronic devices that are here because of Albert Einstein's
theories. It was partly because of him that the atomic bomb was made and that has helped
us with the wars. It has made us come to realize that someone's theory can be more
powerful than thousands of people.
