Presentation about Albert Einstein

3. Born on March 14, 1879 in Ulm, in German
Empire.
Typical boy in elementary school with speech difficulties, yet
he was top student.
Curiosity began when his father showed him pocket compass.
Thought “There must be something in there that causes the
needle to spin besides the “empty space”.”
Built models and mechanical devices just for fun
which showed his mathematical skills.
EARLY AGE

4. When his father’s company failed
in 1894, his family moved to
different places.
He then decided to stay in Munich
to finish his studies.
His father intended for him to
pursue electrical engineering.

5. When Einstein joined his family in Pavia, he
wrote his first scientific work “The Investigation
of the State of Ether in Magnetic fields.”
Einstein finished secondary school aged 17.

6. Marriages and Children
Einstein met Mileva Marić.
In early 1902, they had a
daughter named Lieserl.
A year later, Einstein and
Mileva married.

7. Academic Career
Awarded a Ph. D. by University of Zurich aged 23.

8. Emigration
Forced to leave Germany and enter the U.S due to the
new Chancellor, Adolf Hitler.
Other scientists also emigrated to the United States.

9. World War II
Before the beginning of World War II, Albert was
forced to write a letter to the president of the
United States, to inform him about Hitler’s plans
in developing an atomic bomb.
The letter gave Franklin D. Roosevelt the idea to
join the race building bombs.

10. Death
During the autopsy, the pathologist removed Einstein’s
brain without the permission of his family so
neuroscience of the future will be able to figure out
why Albert Einstein was so intelligent.

11. Special
Relativity
Theory
“You can’t blame gravity for falling in love”.
- Albert Einstein

12. Facts
Einstein published this theory in 1905.
Galileo and Newton had a similar conception of this
theory.
Relative space is some movable dimension or measure
of absolute spaces which our senses determine by
its position to our bodies.

13. THE SPEED OF LIGHT

14. What is waving?
A rough analogy is to a sound wave travelling through
the air.
“Waving” is the medium and oscillations of molecules
of air.
Galileo attempted to measure the speed of light around
1600 A.D..

15. Special Theory of Relativity
Einstein showed that time and length are not
as absolute as every day experience would
suggest.

16. General Relativity
Foundation of modern astrophysics and
cosmology. However, there is another physical
theory at least as fundamental:
quantum theory.
