Essay On Einstein's Stand For World Peace
Significant changes in history are often depicted through rebellions, which specifically comes from
taking a stand for viewpoint based on the conditions it presents. Einstein, a world–renowned German
physician, believed in pacifism and such non–violent acts, so during World War II his ideal for world
peace was considered to be uncommon and rejected due to the majority seeking dominance and
power through victory rather than equal standing. Though without having any power or impact
towards U.S. powers, Einstein was able to contribute towards a sense of world peace with not only
his idea, but instead many other ideas that coincided with his opinion. Einstein rejected military and
common ideas when concerning the atomic bombs. He assumed that the use of the atomic bomb
would have not been necessary, and that the...show more content...
Peace among nations is an accomplishment that shows that Einstein had a stand because during that
time peace was out of reach with all the hateful emotions and actions exchanged between nations.
Franklin D. Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, Announcing an Unlimited National Emergency, depicts a
government's dedicated actions for the people and that they are willing to go through many lengths
to protect its people: The overwhelming majority of our citizens expect their Government to see that
the tools of defense are built; and for the very purpose of preserving the democratic safeguards of
both labor and management, this Government is determined to use all of its power to express the
will of its people, and to prevent interference with the production of materials essential to our nation's
security. (Roosevelt, Announcing an Unlimited

Albert Einstein Essays
Albert Einstein Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in Ulm. He was raised in Munich,
where his family owned a small electrical machinery shop. Though he did not even begin to speak
until he was three, he showed a great curiosity of nature and even taught himself Euclidean geometry
at the age of 12. Albert despised school life, thinking it dull and boring, so when his family decided
to move to Milan, Italy, Einstein took the opportunity to drop out of school, only 15 at the time.
After a year with his parents in Milan it became clear to him that he would have to make his own
way in the world. He finished secondary school in Arrau, Switzerland, and then enrolled at the Swiss

Einstein had been considering the problem for over ten years when he realized that lay not in a
theory of matter but one of measurement. The crux of his special theory or relativity was that all
measurements of time and space depend on judgments as to whether two distant events occur at the
same time (the "relative" view of the observer). This realization led him to develop a theory based
on two major points. First, the principle of relativity, that physical laws are the same in all inertial
reference systems. Second the principle of the invariance of the speed of light, that the speed of
light in a vacuum will always remain constant. Using these two postulates, he was able to provide a
correct description of physical events in different inertial frames of reference, and did not have to
make assumptions about the nature of matter or radiation, nor how they interact. Not many
understood Einstein's argument when it was first offered. This was not because the work was too
mathematically complex or technically obscure, but because of Einstein's beliefs about the nature of
good theories and the relationship between experiment and theory. A good theory, in his opinion,
was one where the minimum number of postulates were used to account for the physical evidence.
He did not believe that theories could be logically connected to experiment, but that scientific

Essay about The Life of Albert Einstein
The Life of Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879, in Southern Germany. One year after his birth his
fathers business failed, so the family moved to Munich, and began a new business manufacturing
electrical parts. His parents Hermann and Pauline were of Jewish descent, but were very lax
regarding religion. The Einstein's sent Albert to a Catholic grade school.
Albert's first scientific revelation came when he was five years of age, and his father showed him
a pocket compass. This occurrence left a long lasting impression on Albert. Otherwise Albert was
not an extraordinary learner. At the age of nine Albert was unable to speak fluently, and his grades
were poor. His parents and teachers...show more content...
These papers concerned themselves with the properties of light, the theory of special relativity and
Einstein famous equation E=mc2. The first of these papers was on Brownian motion. He observed
this concept by using a highly powered microscope, focused on pollen particles submerged in water.
He found that the pollen particles moved in a random fashion, and the speed increased as the
temperature of the water rose. He found that this happened because the pollen particles were being
pushed around by the water particles. The random motion that this created would create different
amounts of movement, which he statistically calculated.
His second paper explained the Photoelectric Effect. The Photoelectric Effect happens when light hits
metal which makes the metal emit electrons, which in turn generate energy. This is how auto–matic
opening doors are operated.
Paper number three dealt with molecules. He wrote about sugar dissolving in water. The paper
explained the dilution and dissolving of sugar and also able to calculate the size of the sugar
molecules. Although similar studies had been done before this was the first time that it was applied
to liquid.3
Ironically on Einstein's initial submission of this paper to the University of Bern it was rejected.
Shortly thereafter, the University recanted their decision and appointed Einstein as a professor.2

In 1905, Einstein received his doctorate from the University of Zurich for a thesis on the dimensions
of molecules. Three published theoretical papers became the central importance to the development
of 20th century physics. The first of the three papers examined electromagnetic energy being
directly proportional to the frequency of the radiation. The second paper he wrote significant
predictions about statistical mechanics later confirmed by experiments. The third of Einstein's
papers of 1905 proposed what is today called the special theory of relativity. He showed how mass
and energy was equivalent.
Einstein resigned from the patent office and was appointed as a professor in Prague in 1911 and
at Zurich in 1912, then worked in Berlin, where he was the director of the Kaiser Wilhelm
Physical Institute from 1914 to 1933. Even before he left the patent office in 1907, Einstein began
work on extending and generalizing the theory of relativity to all coordinate systems. The full
General Theory of Relativity was published in 1916. In this theory the interactions of bodies, which
have been ascribed to gravitational force are explained. Einstein accounted an explanation of the
orbital motion of the planets and predicted the bending of starlight by a massive body such as the
sun. The confirmation of this prediction became Einstein's spread of worldwide fame in 1919 with
the eclipse of the sun. For the

Prompted by this letter, President Roosevelt ordered the Uranium committee to release the funds to
the atomic project, now known as the top secret Manhattan project. Once the United States entered
World War II, the urgency of the bomb gained heightened importance. After a test proved that chain
reaction was possible and the potential devastation of the atomic bomb was realized, Szilard
drafted another letter to the President urging him not to use the atomic bomb. Before the letter
could be delivered, the President died. On August 05, 1945, the atomic bomb "little boy" was
dropped on Hiroshima, Japan taking thousands of lives. With these events as our focus, we will
examine how they changed society from the perspective of the symbolic interactionists, the
functionalist, and the conflict theorists. "Symbolic interactionists study how people use symbols to
develop their views of the world and to communicate with one another. Symbols define for us what
relationships are... without symbols, our social life would lack sophistication" (Henslin, 2006:15).
The significance these happenings had on social change would mean nothing in our history if
everyone and everything did not have a particular symbol. Unable to specify title, materials, or

In Einstein's childhood he went to a catholic elementary school from age five to age eight and then
he was transferred to Luitpold Gymnasium which is now known as the Albert Einstein Gymnasium
this was where he received primary and secondary school education until he left Germany seven
years later. Einstein developed a love for music at an early age. His mother played piano very
well and she wanted her son to learn the violin, not just to enroll him in music but also to help
him assimilate German culture. According to his conductor Einstein is said to have been playing
since he was five but Einstein did not enjoy it at that age. When Einstein turned thirteen he
discovered the violin sonatas of Mozart Einstein immediately fell in love with Mozart's music. At
age seventeen he was heard by a school examiner in Aarau as he played Beethoven's violin
sonatas, the examiner said afterward that his playing was remarkable and revealing of 'great
insight, what struck the examiner explains was that Einstein displayed a deep love of the music a
quality that was and remains in short supply. Music is the possessed an unusual meaning for this

Albert Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity
The theory of Special Relativity, written by Albert Einstein in 1905, describes the laws of motion at
velocities close to and at the speed of light. It was written to make the laws of motion consistent with
the laws of electromagnetism. Special relativity makes two postulates: the laws of physics are the
same for all non–accelerating observers and the speed of light in a vacuum is constant, regardless of
motion. One of the consequences of these postulates is that clocks run slower to an observer in
motion, or time slows down. Special relativity also states that objects at high speeds always appear
shorter in the direction of motion than they do at rest. However, length measurements...show more

Even though it does go against common sense, the special theory of relativity has been thoroughly
tested and found to be correct (Krane).
Before 1905, NewtonВЎВ¦s three laws of motion, or classical mechanics, were widely accepted.
These three laws included the law of inertia, the law that the force is equal to mass times
acceleration, and the law of equal and opposite forces (Tipler). In classical mechanics, if a girl in a
car moving at 30 mph throws a ball at 10 mph, a stationary observer will see the ball moving that 40
mph. MaxwellВЎВ¦s laws of electromagnetism were also accepted at that time. Electromagnetism
explained electric and magnetic fields and attractive and repulsive forces (Tipler). However, even
though both sets of laws were thought to be true, there was a problem with the two laws.
The laws had a contradiction. NewtonВЎВ¦s laws of motion predicted that the speed of light
depended on the motion of the source and the light source, and so given the right circumstances,
light could be observed traveling faster than c, the speed of light. But MaxwellВЎВ¦s laws predicted
that light in a vacuum should travel at a constant speed, c, regardless of the motion of the observer
or source (Prosper). Einstein sought to make the laws of motion consistent with the laws of
electromagnetism, and he accomplished this with his paper on the theory of special relativity.

Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in Germany to a Jewish couple. While having initial
complications with a misshapen head during child birth, he grew normally. However it was
commented by Albert Einstein's relatives that he was a little slow. Einstein's lack of intelligent was
shown by his late age of learning how to speak. His first formal education (besides the private
education he received before school) was at a Catholic school in Munich . This institution was
short–lived because of Einstein's taste and disagreements with the professor. He left the school and

"When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, it seems like two minutes. When you sit on a hot stove
for two minutes, it seems like two hours that's relativity."
–Albert Einstein
In 1905 Einstein published five revolutionary papers in the scientific magazine "Annalen der
Physik". In April of that same year, Einstein submitted his doctorial thesis, "A New Determination of
Molecular Dimensions". Some of the other papers that he published include his famous article "On A
Heuristic Point of View Concerning the Production and Transformation of Light" in which Einstein
described the electromagnetic radiations of light by using Max Planck's quantum hypothesis.
Einstein states that "in order for an electron to be removed from the cathode, a given quantity of
energy had to be delivered to the atom". This revolutionary publication won him the Nobel Prize in
1921.
Another one of his papers was "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" in which Einstein
reveals special relativity. In his paper he describes a stationary clock and a clock in motion:
"If at the points A and B of K there are stationary clocks which, viewed in the stationary system, are
synchronous; and if the clock at A is moved with the velocity v along the line AB to B, then on its
arrival at B the two clocks no longer synchronize, but

This may be because of his "Theory of Relativity," which contained the famous equation E=mcВІ; or
his major involvement in the Manhattan Project, the making of the atom bomb, probably the
most destructive weapon known to man. Einstein has one of the most spectacular uses of
geometry in his theory of gravitation, also known as the general theory of relativity. "Einstein
discovered that by considering the properties of space as though it were curved, he could account
for the effects of gravity of gravity without using the customary "pull" that we intuitively
associate with gravity. He found that he could explain the natural world by using geometry"
(Stwertka 20). In the general theory of relativity, a large mass such as the sun warps the space
around it. Even though this is hard to visualize, if we can think in two dimensions, it is like the
depression made by a large ball on top of a sheet of rubber. Any kind of mass near the sun will tend
to "fall" into the depression, and move toward the sun. This kind of behavior has the same

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

From 1909 to 1916 Albert Einstein worked on a generalization of his Special Theory of Relativity.
The results of his efforts were published in March 1916 in the paper "The Foundation of the General
Theory of Relativity". This theory investigates coordination systems which experience acceleration
relative to each other and also the influence of gravitational fields to time and space.
The Special Theory of Relativity was still intelligible to the average person; this did not apply to
the General Theory of Relativity. Due to the relatively small relativistic effects, this theory was
difficult to verify experimentally. Einstein predicted the perihelion motion of mercury, the
gravitational red shift as well as the deflection of light in a gravitational field. He was convinced
that light deflection by the gravitational field of the sun could be observed during a total solar
eclipse. After several failed observations of total solar eclipses proof finally came in 1919: On
May 29 of that year the English astronomer Arthur Stanley Eddington confirmed Einstein's
prediction of light deflection when he observed a total solar eclipse on the volcanic island of
Principe in the Gulf of Guinea in western Africa. A second expedition, led by Andrew Crommelin,

As a teacher Einstein was unable to find a regular teaching job. Instead he was a tutor in a private
school in Schaffhausen. With his extra time in 1901, Einstein published his first scientific paper,
"Consequences of Capillary Phenomena.Ó In 1902 he was hired at the patent

"Einstein started his theory of relativity at the age of sixteen" (Encyclopedia 511). He received the
Nobel prize for his famous theory. Another famous scientific theory he discovered was E=MC2
(energy equals mass times the speed of light squared). That theory made the atomic bomb possible.
"At dawn on July 16, the atomic structure of the world was revealed when Einstein's famous
equation E=MC2 came to life with a bang"(Brian 344). He was famous for his philosophies too.
besides the theory of relativity, he discovered the theory of motion. "The motions of bodies included
in a given (vehicle) are the same among themselves whether that (vehicle) is at rest or in uniform
motion" (Hoffman 63). When
Einstein was a kid, he devoted himself to solving the mysteries of the world. On April 18, 1955,
Einstein died in his sleep. On his desk lay his last complete statement, written to honor Isreali
Independence day. It read in part:
"What I seek to accomplish is simply to serve with my feeble capacity truth and justice at the risk
of pleasing no one." (Encyclopedia 513). Albert Einstein was smart as a child, but no one
understood him, and he was punished for it. Albert Einstein discovered the theories of relativity, and

theory, there would be no quantum theory or MRI for medical research. Einstein's reach extends
through every fiber of American independence and ingenuity. Albert Einstein epitomizes even today
the cutting edge of technology. As "Genius Among Geniuses" states, "From 1905 to 1925, Einstein
transformed humankind's understanding of nature on every scale...Now, nearly a century after he
began to make his mark, we are still exploring Einstein's universe. The problems he could not solve
remain the ones that define the cutting edge, the most tantalizing and compelling."(Levenson 5)
In addition, Albert Einstein was so important because of his intellectual accomplishments. He is
considered by most to be an incredible genius. Einstein had a knack for inventive ideas. Imagination
thrilled him more so than science. Of this matter, Albert said,
"When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of
fantasy has meant more to

Einstein on Relativity
The theories of relativity were revolutionary. Everybody agrees that Einstein brought about this
revolution. Even the people that claim that Einstein just tweaked the theories of Lorentz and
PoincarГ©, admit that Einstein was the first to recognize the physical meaning of the formulations.
He understood that the terms and concepts like those of absolute space and absolute time must lose
there meaning and other concepts had to replace them, if we were to be able to understand the
phenomena of electrodynamics. All this is consistent with a scientific revolution as conceived of by
Kuhn. It is then possible to express the revolution in science that Einstein started in terms of Kuhn's
paradigms and paradigm shifts....show more content...
The third part of a disciplinary matrix is the values that the disciplinary matrix holds. This is
what a paradigm values as a criteria for judging theories in that disciplinary matrix. In the
Newtonian paradigm, quantitatively expressed theories were valued. Another thing that was
valued were the vague notions that Newton called his first two rules of reasoning. There is
another thing that is sometimes considered part of a disciplinary matrix. They are called the
exemplars of the matrix. These are concrete solutions to problems that the disciplinary matrix has
posed. They represent the best of the disciplinary matrix and their form is looked upon as a model
for future research. They are concrete examples of how the disciplinary matrix has determined
science should work. These disciplinary matrices create the worldview that people use when they
look at the world and conduct science. Most importantly, a paradigm sets up the basic rules that
everyone follows when conducting science. The first thing that it sets up is the problems that are
accessible to science. Different paradigms want different things to be answered. It also sets up
what the rules for observation are. For example, in the Newtonian paradigm, telescopes are valid
where as clairvoyance is not. A disciplinary matrix also defines the basic terms that it uses. For
example, the disciplinary matrix would provide the

Paper On Albert Einstein
Abstract
Albert Einstein was a generally intelligent man who created a series of proven theories. His
theories provided a major impact to the world in which his information allowed individuals to
expand their knowledge of the world. He shared his ideas to a plethora of people and won a
Nobel Prize for the explanations of his theories. Throughout time, he became a shooting target and
moved away from his native land. As an American citizen, he played a part as a civil rights activist.
After a few years, he slowly begun to get distant from everyone and sadly passed away on April 18,
1955.
Albert Einstein: From the beginning Albert Einstein was an extraordinary human being, however, a
copious amount of people do not recall much of him nor his life. It's a common occurrence to hear
the name, "Albert Einstein", but do people actually know what he did?

In 1879, a man named Albert Einstein was born in the southern German city of Ulm on March 14.

As a student in college, he had even larger copious amounts of ideas stirred up. Because of all
time he had, Einstein would create a series of theories, however, he never made the time to
publish them. One of his theories he came up with was named the principle of relativity. In the
year of 1905, Einstein had a, what people call, a 'miracle year'. He finally created the time to put
his thoughts and ideas on to paper to publish to the world. Einstein was able to publish four of his
papers in a physics journal named Annalen der Physik. This publishing company was known as the
best journal of physics in that era. Each paper elaborated on his theories of the matter/energy
relationship, photoelectric effect, Brownian motion, and the special theory of relativity. Each of his
theories made not only scientists second look everything, but as well as made physics turn into a
new direction that was seriously

Essay On Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was a Jewish, German physicist and an advocate. He was born in Ulm, Germany
on March 14, 1879. Before permanently moving to the U.S, he lived in Berlin. He came to the U.S
because Germany was no longer safe for Jewish Germans.
The main reason why Einstein permanently move to the U.S is because he was no longer safe in
Germany. German anti–Semitism was on the rise, especially after Hitler's National Socialist party
began taking over the political power of Germany in 1930, which further encourage hostility towards
German Jews. Many of the German Jews tried to assimilate to the Nazi ruling, even converting to
Christianity. However, Einstein did not want to let go of his Jewish heritage. In fact, he began to
"identify even more strongly with his Jewish heritage." He publicly defended his Jewish culture and
community. The fact that he was a successful German Jew that used his popularity to challenge
anti–Semitic and supported organizations that protected Jews made him a target for anti–Semitism.
For instance, politicians as well as German scientists accused Einstein work on relatively as a
"Jewish perversion". "He found himself looking abroad for congenial outlets for both his scientific
and political expression." He began to lecture at other places in Europe, and from 1930 and onward
he annually visited California Institute of Technology as a professor.
German anti– Semitism got worse after the Nazis sieved power in Germany on January 30, 1933.

Essay On Einstein

  • 1. Essay On Einstein's Stand For World Peace Significant changes in history are often depicted through rebellions, which specifically comes from taking a stand for viewpoint based on the conditions it presents. Einstein, a world–renowned German physician, believed in pacifism and such non–violent acts, so during World War II his ideal for world peace was considered to be uncommon and rejected due to the majority seeking dominance and power through victory rather than equal standing. Though without having any power or impact towards U.S. powers, Einstein was able to contribute towards a sense of world peace with not only his idea, but instead many other ideas that coincided with his opinion. Einstein rejected military and common ideas when concerning the atomic bombs. He assumed that the use of the atomic bomb would have not been necessary, and that the...show more content... Peace among nations is an accomplishment that shows that Einstein had a stand because during that time peace was out of reach with all the hateful emotions and actions exchanged between nations. Franklin D. Roosevelt's Fireside Chat, Announcing an Unlimited National Emergency, depicts a government's dedicated actions for the people and that they are willing to go through many lengths to protect its people: The overwhelming majority of our citizens expect their Government to see that the tools of defense are built; and for the very purpose of preserving the democratic safeguards of both labor and management, this Government is determined to use all of its power to express the will of its people, and to prevent interference with the production of materials essential to our nation's security.

Though he did not even begin to speak until he was three, he showed a great curiosity of nature and even taught himself Euclidean geometry at the age of 12. Albert despised school life, thinking it dull and boring, so when his family decided to move to Milan, Italy, Einstein took the opportunity to drop out of school, only 15 at the time. After a year with his parents in Milan it became clear to him that he would have to make his own way in the world. He finished secondary school in Arrau, Switzerland, and then enrolled at the Swiss National Polytechnic in Zurich. School there was no...show more content... Einstein had been considering the problem for over ten years when he realized that lay not in a theory of matter but one of measurement. The crux of his special theory or relativity was that all measurements of time and space depend on judgments as to whether two distant events occur at the same time (the "relative" view of the observer). This realization led him to develop a theory based on two major points. First, the principle of relativity, that physical laws are the same in all inertial reference systems. Second the principle of the invariance of the speed of light, that the speed of light in a vacuum will always remain constant. Using these two postulates, he was able to provide a correct description of physical events in different inertial frames of reference, and did not have to make assumptions about the nature of matter or radiation, nor how they interact. Not many understood Einstein's argument when it was first offered. This was not because the work was too mathematically complex or technically obscure, but because of Einstein's beliefs about the nature of good theories and the relationship between experiment and theory. A good theory, in his opinion, was one where the minimum number of postulates were used to account for the physical evidence. He did not believe that theories could be logically connected to experiment, but that scientific theories were Get more content on HelpWriting.net

One year after his birth his fathers business failed, so the family moved to Munich, and began a new business manufacturing electrical parts. His parents Hermann and Pauline were of Jewish descent, but were very lax regarding religion. The Einstein's sent Albert to a Catholic grade school. Albert's first scientific revelation came when he was five years of age, and his father showed him a pocket compass. This occurrence left a long lasting impression on Albert. Otherwise Albert was not an extraordinary learner. At the age of nine Albert was unable to speak fluently, and his grades were poor. His parents and teachers...show more content... These papers concerned themselves with the properties of light, the theory of special relativity and Einstein famous equation E=mc2. The first of these papers was on Brownian motion. He observed this concept by using a highly powered microscope, focused on pollen particles submerged in water. He found that the pollen particles moved in a random fashion, and the speed increased as the temperature of the water rose. He found that this happened because the pollen particles were being pushed around by the water particles. The random motion that this created would create different amounts of movement, which he statistically calculated. His second paper explained the Photoelectric Effect. The Photoelectric Effect happens when light hits metal which makes the metal emit electrons, which in turn generate energy. This is how auto–matic opening doors are operated. Paper number three dealt with molecules. He wrote about sugar dissolving in water. The paper explained the dilution and dissolving of sugar and also able to calculate the size of the sugar molecules. Although similar studies had been done before this was the first time that it was applied to liquid.3 Ironically on Einstein's initial submission of this paper to the University of Bern it was rejected.

In 1905, Einstein received his doctorate from the University of Zurich for a thesis on the dimensions of molecules. Three published theoretical papers became the central importance to the development of 20th century physics. The first of the three papers examined electromagnetic energy being directly proportional to the frequency of the radiation. The second paper he wrote significant predictions about statistical mechanics later confirmed by experiments. The third of Einstein's papers of 1905 proposed what is today called the special theory of relativity. He showed how mass and energy was equivalent. Einstein resigned from the patent office and was appointed as a professor in Prague in 1911 and at Zurich in 1912, then worked in Berlin, where he was the director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Physical Institute from 1914 to 1933. Even before he left the patent office in 1907, Einstein began work on extending and generalizing the theory of relativity to all coordinate systems. The full General Theory of Relativity was published in 1916. In this theory the interactions of bodies, which have been ascribed to gravitational force are explained. Einstein accounted an explanation of the orbital motion of the planets and predicted the bending of starlight by a massive body such as the sun. The confirmation of this prediction became Einstein's spread of worldwide fame in 1919 with the eclipse of the sun. For the Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Roosevelt that would change the world forever. He was visited at his Long Island home by Hungarian physicists Leo Szilard and Eugene Wigner in order to get his help in urging the President to build a nuclear bomb; they felt that the building of this atomic bomb and the treat of its detonation would save the world. He presumed that a big, scary weapon would deter war and force nations into peace. Szilard needed Einstein's help to set his theory in motion. Driven by intense fear of the Nazi Germany having an unbeatable lead on the...show more content... Prompted by this letter, President Roosevelt ordered the Uranium committee to release the funds to the atomic project, now known as the top secret Manhattan project. Once the United States entered World War II, the urgency of the bomb gained heightened importance. After a test proved that chain reaction was possible and the potential devastation of the atomic bomb was realized, Szilard drafted another letter to the President urging him not to use the atomic bomb. Before the letter could be delivered, the President died. On August 05, 1945, the atomic bomb "little boy" was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan taking thousands of lives. With these events as our focus, we will examine how they changed society from the perspective of the symbolic interactionists, the functionalist, and the conflict theorists. "Symbolic interactionists study how people use symbols to develop their views of the world and to communicate with one another. Symbols define for us what relationships are... without symbols, our social life would lack sophistication" (Henslin, 2006:15). The significance these happenings had on social change would mean nothing in our history if everyone and everything did not have a particular symbol.

In Einstein's childhood he went to a catholic elementary school from age five to age eight and then he was transferred to Luitpold Gymnasium which is now known as the Albert Einstein Gymnasium this was where he received primary and secondary school education until he left Germany seven years later. Einstein developed a love for music at an early age. His mother played piano very well and she wanted her son to learn the violin, not just to enroll him in music but also to help him assimilate German culture. According to his conductor Einstein is said to have been playing since he was five but Einstein did not enjoy it at that age. When Einstein turned thirteen he discovered the violin sonatas of Mozart Einstein immediately fell in love with Mozart's music. At age seventeen he was heard by a school examiner in Aarau as he played Beethoven's violin sonatas, the examiner said afterward that his playing was remarkable and revealing of 'great insight, what struck the examiner explains was that Einstein displayed a deep love of the music a quality that was and remains in short supply.

  • 7. Albert Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity The theory of Special Relativity, written by Albert Einstein in 1905, describes the laws of motion at velocities close to and at the speed of light. It was written to make the laws of motion consistent with the laws of electromagnetism. Special relativity makes two postulates: the laws of physics are the same for all non–accelerating observers and the speed of light in a vacuum is constant, regardless of motion. One of the consequences of these postulates is that clocks run slower to an observer in motion, or time slows down.

Even though it does go against common sense, the special theory of relativity has been thoroughly tested and found to be correct (Krane). Before 1905, NewtonВЎВ¦s three laws of motion, or classical mechanics, were widely accepted. These three laws included the law of inertia, the law that the force is equal to mass times acceleration, and the law of equal and opposite forces (Tipler). In classical mechanics, if a girl in a car moving at 30 mph throws a ball at 10 mph, a stationary observer will see the ball moving that 40 mph. MaxwellВЎВ¦s laws of electromagnetism were also accepted at that time. Electromagnetism explained electric and magnetic fields and attractive and repulsive forces (Tipler). However, even though both sets of laws were thought to be true, there was a problem with the two laws. The laws had a contradiction. NewtonВЎВ¦s laws of motion predicted that the speed of light depended on the motion of the source and the light source, and so given the right circumstances, light could be observed traveling faster than c, the speed of light. But MaxwellВЎВ¦s laws predicted that light in a vacuum should travel at a constant speed, c, regardless of the motion of the observer or source (Prosper). Einstein sought to make the laws of motion consistent with the laws of electromagnetism, and he accomplished this with his paper on the theory of special relativity.

While having initial complications with a misshapen head during child birth, he grew normally. However it was commented by Albert Einstein's relatives that he was a little slow. Einstein's lack of intelligent was shown by his late age of learning how to speak. His first formal education (besides the private education he received before school) was at a Catholic school in Munich .

In April of that same year, Einstein submitted his doctorial thesis, "A New Determination of Molecular Dimensions". Some of the other papers that he published include his famous article "On A Heuristic Point of View Concerning the Production and Transformation of Light" in which Einstein described the electromagnetic radiations of light by using Max Planck's quantum hypothesis. Einstein states that "in order for an electron to be removed from the cathode, a given quantity of energy had to be delivered to the atom". This revolutionary publication won him the Nobel Prize in 1921. Another one of his papers was "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" in which Einstein reveals special relativity. In his paper he describes a stationary clock and a clock in motion: "If at the points A and B of K there are stationary clocks which, viewed in the stationary system, are synchronous; and if the clock at A is moved with the velocity v along the line AB to B, then on its arrival at B the two clocks no longer synchronize, but Get more content on HelpWriting.net

This may be because of his "Theory of Relativity," which contained the famous equation E=mcВІ; or his major involvement in the Manhattan Project, the making of the atom bomb, probably the most destructive weapon known to man. Einstein has one of the most spectacular uses of geometry in his theory of gravitation, also known as the general theory of relativity. "Einstein discovered that by considering the properties of space as though it were curved, he could account for the effects of gravity of gravity without using the customary "pull" that we intuitively associate with gravity. He found that he could explain the natural world by using geometry" (Stwertka 20). In the general theory of relativity, a large mass such as the sun warps the space around it. Even though this is hard to visualize, if we can think in two dimensions, it is like the depression made by a large ball on top of a sheet of rubber. Any kind of mass near the sun will tend to "fall" into the depression, and move toward the sun. This kind of behavior has the same Get more content on HelpWriting.net

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.

He suggested that the movement was the result of the random motion of molecules of the suspension medium as they rebound off suspended particles. The second paper laid the base of the photon, or quantum theory of light. It said that light is made off separate packets of energy, titled quanta or photons. The paper remade the theory of light. Also explaining the emissions of electrons from some solid objects when they are struck by light. Televisions are practical applications of Einstein's discoveries. The third paper, which he began as an essay at age 16, contained the "special theory of relativity." He showed that time and motion are relative to the observer, if the speed of light is constant and natural laws are the same everywhere in the universe. The fourth was a mathematical addition to the special theory of relativity. This is where he presents his famous E=mcВІ, also known as the energy mass equivalence.

The results of his efforts were published in March 1916 in the paper "The Foundation of the General Theory of Relativity". This theory investigates coordination systems which experience acceleration relative to each other and also the influence of gravitational fields to time and space. The Special Theory of Relativity was still intelligible to the average person; this did not apply to the General Theory of Relativity. Due to the relatively small relativistic effects, this theory was difficult to verify experimentally. Einstein predicted the perihelion motion of mercury, the gravitational red shift as well as the deflection of light in a gravitational field. He was convinced that light deflection by the gravitational field of the sun could be observed during a total solar eclipse. After several failed observations of total solar eclipses proof finally came in 1919: On May 29 of that year the English astronomer Arthur Stanley Eddington confirmed Einstein's prediction of light deflection when he observed a total solar eclipse on the volcanic island of Principe in the Gulf of Guinea in western Africa. A second expedition, led by Andrew Crommelin, observed this eclipse in Sobral, Brazil.

Before permanently moving to the U.S, he lived in Berlin. He came to the U.S because Germany was no longer safe for Jewish Germans. The main reason why Einstein permanently move to the U.S is because he was no longer safe in Germany. German anti–Semitism was on the rise, especially after Hitler's National Socialist party began taking over the political power of Germany in 1930, which further encourage hostility towards German Jews. Many of the German Jews tried to assimilate to the Nazi ruling, even converting to Christianity. However, Einstein did not want to let go of his Jewish heritage. In fact, he began to "identify even more strongly with his Jewish heritage." He publicly defended his Jewish culture and community. The fact that he was a successful German Jew that used his popularity to challenge anti–Semitic and supported organizations that protected Jews made him a target for anti–Semitism. For instance, politicians as well as German scientists accused Einstein work on relatively as a "Jewish perversion". "He found himself looking abroad for congenial outlets for both his scientific and political expression."
