Albert Einstein

 


Albert Einstein's life was divided between politics and equation although he was a  great scientist of the World . His equation E=MC^2 brought a revolution in science . Despite his contribution to science, he was also involved in politics in order to maintain peace in the world . 

     Albert  Einstein was born on 14 March, 1879 in the town of Ulm in the Germany . Where he was at the age of one year , his parents migrated to Munich and started a small electro-chemical factory . His family was Jewish so he was brought up in the same faith but he was admitted to a Catholic school because there was no convenient Jewish School . He because interested in mathematics as he was influenced by his uncle . When Albert was 15, his father went bankrupt and closed the factory . Therefore, his economic condition became miserable . Then Albert looked for some technical institution that might train him for a scientific career . Eventually , after a second migration to Switzerland he found the Polytechnic Institute in Zurich . That institute had an international reputation where students from all over Europe studied .

        On leaving Polytechnic Institute , he was offered a post in the patent office . Then he married . His work at the patent office was well-paid and interesting . In 1905 he published papers on the production and transformation of light and on electro-dynamics of moving bodies . His writing made him famous and he was appointed junior professor at the University of Zurich . But his salary was not better than what he was given in the patent office . He couldn't maintain the standard of the financial problem . In 1911 he was appointed to a better-paid professorship in Prague . 

          Albert Einstein is most well-known for his special theory of relatively which tackled motion and the speed of light . His one of the most important discoveries is E=MC^2 where E stands for Energy, M stands for Mass and C stands for velocity of light . Atom bombs and nuclear reactors are made on the principle of this equation . Similarly, his other two theories are the principle of photoelectric effect and the unified field theory . These theories substantially  contribute to human life . For instance, the solar power stations are made on the principle of photoelectric effect . Likewise, the unified field theory deals with the gravitational and electromagnetic forces . These two forces are also directly related to the daily life of the people .

        In addition to the discoveries of the scientific theories , Einstein also significantly contributed to the field of politics by dedicating his life to promoting  peace in the world . He was a great humanitarian scientist who also involved in the anti- war program . He always told the powerful nations not to use terrible weapons such as atom bombs in the war . For instance, just before the bomb was dropped on Japan , he wrote a letter to the president of the USA not to use that terrible weapon in the war .

       Many devices are made on his principles . They have changed the mode of human life .  His activities are found to have dedicated to promoting peace and prosperity in the world . The great scientist and phlegmatic politician and pacifist died in 1955 .
