Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879 - April 18, 1955) was born in Ulm, Kingdom of Württemberg, Germany. He graduated from the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. College, Jewish physicist.

Einstein was born in 1879 in a Jewish family in Ulm, Germany (both parents were Jewish). He graduated from the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 1900 and became a Swiss citizen.

In 1905, Einstein received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Zurich. He proposed the photon hypothesis and successfully explained the photoelectric effect. As a result, he won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics and founded the special theory of relativity in 1905. Founded the general theory of relativity in 1915. Died on April 18, 1955, at the age of 76.

The story of Einstein

1. Inconsistency

Once, he wanted to replace an old painting on the wall, so he moved it Get a ladder and climb up step by step. Suddenly, he thought of another question, became deep in thought, forgot what he was doing, and suddenly fell off the ladder. After falling to the ground, he ignored the pain and immediately thought: Why do people fall straight down?

Objects always move along the line of least resistance. When Einstein thought of this, he immediately stood up, limped to the table, and picked up a pen to write down his idea. This has great inspiration for the problem he is studying - the theory of relativity. In 1930, Germany published a book criticizing the theory of relativity called "One Hundred Professors Came Out to Prove Einstein Wrong."

After Einstein heard the news, he just shrugged and said: "100 people are too many. As long as they can prove that I am really wrong, even one person will be enough." Once, love Einstein walks down the street in New York. His best friend met him. And said to him: "Einstein, it's time for you to buy new clothes. Look how old your clothes are!"

But Einstein replied: "It doesn't matter, there is no one here." Get to know me." A few years later, Einstein became a world-famous scientist, but he still wore that dress. The friend met him again and told him to buy new clothes. But Einstein said: "I don't need to buy new clothes, everyone here knows me."

2. Secret of success

Einstein often said to people: Learn Time is a constant, but its efficiency is a variable. It is unwise to pursue learning time alone. The most important thing is to improve learning efficiency. He believed that it was necessary to gain abundant energy and maintain a clear mind through cultural and sports activities. Einstein also summed up a formula based on his own experience, namely A=X Y Z.

A stands for success, X stands for the right way, Y stands for hard work, and Z stands for less nonsense. He summarized the content of this formula into two sentences: work and rest are the steps to success, and cherishing time is an important condition for making achievements.
