The Photoelectric Effect
• Einstein hypothesized that the number of electrons released would not depend on the number of quanta, but the light’s energy.
• Confirming his hypothesis through several experiments, Einstein won the Nobel Prize of 1921 for his works in this field.

• Explained the movements of very small objects.
• Examined molecular action that supported the Atomic Theory.

The theory of Relativity
• First assumption was that the law of physics are the same from any frame of reference.
• Second assumption was that the velocity of light will always be the same no matter what condition measured.
• From the two assumptions, Einstein derived a mathematical relationship between the velocity of an object and its length.

E=MC²
• Energy equals mass times
the speed of light squared.
• Formula was derived due to
Einstein’s realization of how
closely energy and a mass of
a body is connected
• This formula suggests that
tiny amounts of mass can be
converted into huge amounts
of energy.

Atomic Bomb
• Einstein wrote a letter to
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
informing him of a possible
atomic bomb being built in
Germany.
• Einstein’s formula, E=MC², was
key in the United States
developing the atomic bomb.

Albert Einstein Famous Quotes
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure
about the universe.
If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play;
and z is keeping your mouth shut.
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.
I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.
