Albert Einstein Facts

Albert Einstein is perhaps the most famous scientist of all time. Both his image and brilliant work on theoretical physics live on today and he serves as an inspiration to young scientists around the world.

Read on for interesting facts, quotes and information about Albert Einstein.

Albert Einstein was born on the 14th of March 1879 and died on the 18th of April 1955.

Born in Germany to a Jewish family, Einstein made many contributions to the field of theoretical physics.

Even when very young, Einstein showed great ability in both math’s and science. He was naturally curious and had a brilliant analytical mind.

Einstein worked in a patent office evaluating patents for electromagnetic devices not long after he graduated.

He produced perhaps one of the most famous equations ever: E = mc² (energy equals mass multiplied by the speed of light squared).

He is also well known for his theory of relativity. Special relativity being introduced in his 1905 paper “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies” before Einstein developed the theory of general relativity between the years of 1907 and 1915.

Einstein won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on theoretical physics.

He worked on many other influential theories and projects including: the deflection of light by gravity, the quantum theory of atomic motion in solids, Brownian motion, an explanation for capillary action and much more.

Famous Albert Einstein quotes include: "Whether you can observe a thing or not depends on the theory which you use. It is the theory which decides what can be observed."

"If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.... I do know that I get most joy in life out of my violin."

"Physical concepts are free creations of the human mind, and are not, however it may seem, uniquely determined by the external world."

"I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."

Best Physics Tuition in Singapore

Physics tuition classes in Miracle Learning Centre is very beneficial. If you do not understand physics, you must definitely try the physics tuition class at Miracle Learning Centre. Let us learn about the Introduction to Flight

Give students an enjoyable introduction to the world of flight with some fun activities, interesting facts and cool demonstrations

Teach them about the forces involved in flying such as lift, gravity, thrust and drag as well as Bernoulli’s principle and much more. This flying lesson plan is perfect for kids.

Introduction: People have always understood that flight was possible from observing birds, but it took thousands of years to actually achieve and there were many hurdles along the way. What are some examples of things that fly? Birds, planes, hot air balloons etc Can you group them into different types of flight? How about grouping them into natural and man made things? Flying is defined as controlled movement through the air and includes sustained, controlled and powered flight. Flight is the actual process of flying, many things can become airborne but are they actually flying and under control? What role does gravity play in our efforts to fly?

Wings, aerofoils and the forces of flying: Let’s look at some of the common characteristics of things that fly. Looking at bird wings and plane shapes the main characteristic is the aerofoil shape. The wings of birds and planes have what is called an aerofoil shape. This aerofoil shape helps us overcome weight which is the effect of gravity pulling down on the mass of the aircraft. The aerofoil shape gives us something called lift. This is the upward force required to overcome gravity, being produced by a wing as it moves through the air. This action allows the object to lift up and push forward. Something that slows us down is drag, which is the resistance to airflow and consequently slows the progress of an aircraft through the air, arising from disturbing the air as it moves through it, and from the skin friction due to the viscosity or ‘stickiness of the air. The drag force is opposite to the flight path. Thrust is the forward force required to move an aircraft through the air, overcoming drag (and providing sufficient speed for a wing to develop enough lift to fly). This must be provided by an engine, by gravity (glider, sailplane) or by muscles (birds).

How do we control flight? Control of an aircraft is on three axes: Yaw, pitch and roll. Moving parts of the wing, tailplane and fin surfaces change the the camber of these parts and affect their lift (and their drag) and provide forces to change the aircraft’s path. Rudder controls Yawing (left/right) Elevators control pitching (nose up/down) Ailerons control rolling

Bernoulli's principle: Bernoulli’s principle helps explain that an aircraft can achieve lift because of the shape of its wings. They are shaped so that that air flows faster over the top of the wing and slower underneath. Fast moving air equals low air pressure while slow moving air equals high air pressure. The high air pressure underneath the wings will therefore push the aircraft up through the lower air pressure.

Demonstrations: There are a number of useful demonstrations you can do to help explain flight, they include: Using a hairdryer to float ping-pong or polystyrene balls. Releasing a blown up balloon so that it flies up a string connected from one side of a room to the other. Helium balloons. Giant air blowers to help show the Bernoulli principle in action. Throwing paper airplanes of different designs, which work better and why?

Activities: Your challenge is to hold a rectangular piece of paper close to your mouth, blow across the top of it and get the paper to move down. Sounds simple enough but give it a go and see if you change your mind. Next, try and make a piece of paper into a simple bridge and get the bridge to rise up by blowing under it. Your final challenge is to hold 2 paper strips near your mouth, blow between them and get them to fly apart.

What's happening? You might find they results of these challenges surprising. You blew across the paper and it went up rather than down! You blew under the bridge and the bridge went down, rather than up. You blew between the streamers and they moved in, not out. Your fast moving breath has less push (less air pressure) than the still air below the paper. The still air with the greater pressure pushes up into the low pressure area. It lifts the paper up with it. These interesting results are due to the Bernoulli effect, remember it because it plays an important role in our ability to fly.

Best Physics Tuition in Singapore

Physics Tuition classes in Miracle Learning Centre is very beneficial. If you do not understand physics, you must definitely try the physics tuition class at Miracle Learning Centre. Let us learn about the Make Your Own Rainbow.

Make Your Own Rainbow

Learn how to make a rainbow with this fun science experiment for kids. Using just a few simple everyday items you can find out how rainbows work while enjoying an interactive, hands on activity that’s perfect for kids.

What you'll need:

A glass of water (about three quarters full) White paper A sunny day

Instructions:

Take the glass of water and paper to a part of the room with sunlight (near a window is good). Hold the glass of water (being careful not to spill it) above the paper and watch as sunlight passes through the glass of water, refracts (bends) and forms a rainbow of colors on your sheet of paper. Try holding the glass of water at different heights and angles to see if it has a different effect.

What's happening?

While you normally see a rainbow as an arc of color in the sky, they can also form in other situations. You may have seen a rainbow in a water fountain or in the mist of a waterfall and you can even make your own such as you did in this experiment. Rainbows form in the sky when sunlight refracts (bends) as it passes through raindrops, it acts in the same way when it passes through your glass of water. The sunlight refracts, separating it into the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.

Best Science Tuition in Singapore

Science tuition classes in Miracle Learning Centre is very beneficial. If you do not understand science, you must definitely try the science tuition class at Miracle Learning Centre. Let us learn about Egg Float in Salt Water.

What you'll need:

One egg Water Salt A tall drinking glass

Instructions:

Pour water into the glass until it is about half full. Stir in lots of salt (about 6 tablespoons). Carefully pour in plain water until the glass is nearly full (be careful to not disturb or mix the salty water with the plain water). Gently lower the egg into the water and watch what happens.

What's happening?

Salt water is denser than ordinary tap water, the denser the liquid the easier it is for an object to float in it. When you lower the egg into the liquid it drops through the normal tap water until it reaches the salty water, at this point the water is dense enough for the egg to float. If you were careful when you added the tap water to the salt water, they will not have mixed, enabling the egg to amazingly float in the middle of the glass.

Fun Crystal Activities

Crystals are special structures that can be used in a number of great science experiments. Try the fun crystal activities in this lesson plan and let kids make crystals, learn about their physical properties and have fun at the same time.

Introduction:

Ask what your students already know about crystals. Maybe they know they can find some in their kitchen cupboard at home in the form of jelly crystals, sugar, salt etc.

A crystal is a regularly shaped solid with flat surfaces. The tiny particles inside the crystals are arranged side by side, and on top of each other in symmetrical patterns. This is what makes a crystal special.

No two crystals are the same and there are lots of different shapes that crystals can make, the flat surfaces of these crystals are called ‘faces’.

Not all crystals you see will actually look like crystals to you, this is because they aren't perfectly formed. Sometimes there is not enough space or it’s too hot or cold for the crystals to grow perfectly. When this happens you often end up with different and unusual looking crystals.
Crystals that are perfectly formed are often worn as jewelry because of their beautiful aesthetic quality.

Now that we know a little bit more about crystals, let’s try some fun activities!

Crystal Activities:

Create a crystal solution by mixing 2 cups of sugar (or 3 tablespoons of borax) into a cup of hot water until it is fully dissolved.
Find a piece of black card.
Dip your paintbrush into the crystal solution.
Paint your snow picture. (It will be invisible at first so you will have to imagine what you are drawing).
Hold the picture in front of the heater and your picture will appear like magic.
So what’s happening? The liquid in the solution evaporates, leaving behind a film of delicate crystals in the shape of what you drew earlier.

Copper Sulphate Crystals

Take a clean film canister.
Put one teaspoon of copper sulfate (blue powder) into your film canister.
Half fill the canister with warm water (adult supervision is a good idea for this part).
Put the lid on firmly, and shake gently for around 30 seconds.
When you get home, take the lid off the canister and put it in the sun and watch as your crystals grow.
Remember to wash your hands and clean up any mess when you’re finished.

Panning For Crystals

Take a number of different colored sands and pour them into a pan.
Add one cup of water so you can separate the minerals.
Gently tilt the pan around in a circular motion, so that a little wave of water washes over the sand.
The heavier grains don’t move very much but the lighter grains do. This is how the crystals separate.
Sort the minerals into different colors before choosing your favorite to put into a vial to keep for yourself. You can also try layering the different colored minerals on top of each other.

Other Crystal Activities:

Make bath crystals using epsom salts, perfume and food coloring.
Make sherbet out of jelly crystals, citric acid, baking soda and icing sugar.
Make a crystal snowflake using borax.
Drawing and coloring different 3D crystal shapes.
Examining crystals under a microscope.

Glue Making Activity

Make glue with this fun chemistry activity for kids. Learn the basic science properties of glue and put your finished product to the test. Enjoy the fun ideas that this science lesson plan offers.

Introduction:

This glue was used as far back as early Egyptians who used it in the construction of their boats. This same glue was used on some World War 1 aircraft. Let's make some of our own and see if it works!

Glue making activity:

Pour 50ml of milk into a beaker and gently warm it until it has just started simmering. Add 5ml of vinegar and watch as the milk separates into curds (solid) and whey (liquid). Filter the curds through a cloth with small holes in it (or a sieve). Put the curds into a small container and add 5mls of ammonia solution. Heat and stir the mixture until a thick creamy liquid forms. This is the glue. Allow the glue to cool.

After you've finished:

From here you can put your glue to the test. Use your glue to help build a small house made of sticks, add objects to a poster or collage, or for any other project that you need glue. How well did your homemade glue stick objects together?
