Albert Einstein was a renowned physicist born on March 14, 1879, in Ulm, Germany, and he passed away on April 18, 1955, in Princeton, New Jersey, USA. Here are some key points about his life and work:
Theory of Relativity: Einstein is best known for his theory of relativity, which includes two major components:
Special Theory of Relativity (1905): This theory introduced the famous equation E=mc², showing the equivalence of mass and energy. It also introduced the concept that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, leading to groundbreaking ideas about space and time.
General Theory of Relativity (1915): This theory expanded upon the special theory and introduced the concept of gravity as the curvature of spacetime caused by mass. It was a major revolution in our understanding of gravity and led to the prediction of phenomena like gravitational lensing and the existence of black holes.
Photoelectric Effect: In 1905, the same year he published the special theory of relativity, Einstein also explained the photoelectric effect, which showed that light behaves as both waves and particles (photons). This work earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.
Early Life: Einstein had a relatively unremarkable childhood, but he showed an early aptitude for mathematics and physics. He attended the Swiss Federal Polytechnic in Zurich, where he graduated in 1900.
