Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in Germany and died on April 18, 1955.
He was a German mathematician and physicist. He was the most important scientist of the 20th century.
He developed the theory relativity and the special. Einstein won a lot of prizes.
Einstein had more than 1 wife, The first one was Mileva Marić, with her they had three children. The second wife was Elsa Einstein, their mother’s sister.
In his school the teachers thought he( be)(was) retarded, he was a poor student. Einstein had more problems in physics and mathematical(mathematics) subjects by age sixteen.
He didn’t like school.
He entered the Federal Institute of Technology (FIT) in Switzerland in 1896.
POLITICAL AND RELIGIOUS:
The Religion of Albert Einstein was atheist but he believed in a God called Spinoza. Spinoza was a philosopher and created a religion where the God was everywhere and expressed through nature. Einstein believed that God was not something that directs us and punishes but is everywhere. His family was Jewish.
He always had an inclination towards politics and social commitment as a scientist. He created the atomic bomb but he asked that it never be used, because he believed that fear could help stop the war without using violence. In recent years he became a pacifist and created an organization against the use of nuclear weapons.
AWARDS AND SCIENTIFIC WORKS:
In 1921 Albert Einstein received the Nobel Prize (in 1921) specifically for his theoretical explanation about the photoelectric effect, discovered by Heinrich Hertz. The law of photoelectric effect is based on the production and transformation of the light applied in to a object.
He also did more research, like for example:
→ He wrote about the Brownian movement (the aleatorian movement of particles on a liquid or a gas)
→ He proposed the theory of special relativity, (able to explain the cinematic (comportament)(behavior) of bodies in movement)
→ He discovered the relationship between the mass and the energy.
(“L” is the energy that an object emits and “V” is the velocity of the light, also discovered by Albert Einstein)
→ He, and Bose, an indian scientist, discovered the quantum of light, that is based on groups of atoms
→ On his last years Albert Einstein exposed one of the most important theories named “The unified field theory” (based on the theory of gravitation)
