Inventions and discoveries of Albert Einstein?

By Patty Inglish, MS published 17 months ago.

Very few scientists have had such a profound impact on society as Albert Einstein. To many his contributions are still mystifying. He was the first to realize the inadequacy of Newtonian mechanics in explaining laws of the electromagnetic field.

This made him to propose the 'The special theory of relativity' in 1905, and later in 1915 he was able to extend it to gravitational fields too in his 'General theory of relativity'. He is however always remembered for his equation E=mc2 which was instrumental in making the atomic bomb (known as the Manhattan project). Strangely he was awarded the Nobel prize for his discovery of the photoelectric effect.

Being a spectroscopist, I would have to say that Einstein's photoelectric effect is probably the most important to me!

Pretty sure Einstein didn't invent anything....He just proved that matter and energy are one in the same, he showed that time and space are intricately wrapped up, that it's impossible to go faster than the speed of light (even if you go 50% the speed of light and then launch an object from you that is traveling 50% the speed of light), that time and space are intricately wrapped, and that gravity isn't so much of a force so much as it is the warping of space-time. No inventions, though...... worthless old man!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
