Honor is when you do something out of respect. My definition of respect is when you do something for someone else to help them or to show them how much you care. Albert Einstein was a physicist he discovered new ways to look at time, space, matter, energy, and gravity. He won the Nobel Prize for physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. He is considered the most influential physicist of the 20th century. When Albert was a child he was only exceptional in math in school. In 1915, Einstein published his theory of relativity, which stated that gravitational fields cause distortions in the fabric of space and time.It was such a bold rewriting of the laws of physics that it remained in question until May of 1919, when a total solar …show more content…
“All my life I have dealt with objective matters,” Einstein wrote in a letter to the Israeli ambassador, “hence I lack both the natural aptitude and the experience to deal properly with people and to exercise official function.” Einstein believed that the laws of physics are the same everywhere. So on Earth we deal with the same laws of light and gravity as something, or someone, way out in the universe. It’s all relative, you might say. He also, believed that the speed of light is constant. In March 1905 , Einstein created the quantum theory of light, the idea that light exists as tiny packets, or particles, which he called photons. Alongside Max Planck's work on quanta of heat Einstein proposed one of the most shocking idea in twentieth century physics: we live in a quantum universe, one built out of tiny, discrete chunks of energy and matter. Next, in April and May, Einstein published two papers. In one he invented a new method of counting and determining the size of the atoms or molecules in a given space and in the other he explains the phenomenon of Brownian motion. The net result was a proof that atoms actually exist and the end to a millennia-old debate on the fundamental nature of the chemical
