Einstein’s theory

Consider now the observed values of the equivalent conductivity for the various species of ions given in Table 2 [disregarding the ions (OH)-and H+, which need special consideration]. If we ask, from this point of view, why such a wide variety of values is found, this must be ascribed to the wide variety in the character of the random motion executed by different species of ions in the absence of an electric field. We shall not go into the details of Einstein s theory of the Brownian motion but the liveliness of the motion for any species of particle may be expressed by assigning a value to a certain parameter for a charged particle in an... 

According to Joule s law ( 9), the molecular heat of a compound is the sum of the atomic heats of its components, and since this holds good even when the atomic heats are irregular, i.e., not equal to 6 4, it seems that the heat content of a solid resides in its atoms, and not in the molecular complexes as such. This agrees with Einstein s theory. Hence the molecular heat of a compound should be calculable by means of the formula ... 

We can now interpret the experimental observations of the photoelectric effect in light of Einstein s theory ... 

But it was Max Planck who shattered the paradigm of the steadiness of nature. He showed that atoms could not absorb energy in all forms and quantities, but only in so-called quanta, that is, in defined amounts. Thus, electrons jump, as we explain it today, from one energy level to another. Natura saltat Albert Einstein s theory was even more groundbreaking space and time form a continuum, matter and energy, in contrast, are quantized, essentially "grainy", so to speak. In this case, nature cannot but jump. 

Relativity Einstein s theory invoking a constant speed of light, which divides into special relativity and general relativity, the latter describing gravity. 

The power of the operational approach became strikingly evident in Einstein s theory of special relativity, with its analysis of the meaning of presumably absolute, intuitive concepts such as time or space. Newton defined absolute time as... 

Another design for particle accelerators is based on a circular arrangement. A cyclotron is similar to a linear accelerator wound into a spiral. A series of electromagnets causes the particles to move in a circle as they are accelerated by the electric field. According to Einstein s theory of relativity, an object s mass increases as it accelerates. In particle accelerators this is a problem because as the mass increases, the particle slows down and becomes out of sync with the changing electric field. A synchrotron is a cyclotron in which the electric field increases to compensate for the change in... 

In 2001, Christian Bok published Eunoia, which includes five chapters, each one of which is a prose poem using words with only one of the five vowels. Eunoia is also the shortest word in the English language to use all five vowels. More recently, Brian Raiter wrote a paper titled Albert Einstein s Theory of Relativity in Words of Four Letters or Less —an explanation of Albert Einstein s Theory of Relativity using words no more than four letters long, with paragraphs like ...

The next topic is Einstein s theory of viscosity of dispersions of rigid, spherical particles. This theory is the starting point for most of the current approaches to flow properties of colloids and plays a practical, pedagogical, as well as historical role. 

We examine some major conditions under which Einstein s theory breaks down. For our purpose, (he two important reasons are (a) the effect of the concentration of the dispersion and (b) the effects of interparticle forces, particularly the electrostatic repulsive forces or polymer additives. This leads us next to the non-Newtonian behavior of dispersions.
