Albert Einstein - Chapter 28

Albert Einstein is considered the world father of modern day Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize for his services in Theoretical Physics and his discovery of the Photoelectric effect. The Photoelectric effect is the phenomenon where electrons are emitted from matter as a consequence of their absorption of energy from electromagnetic radiation of very short wavelength, such as ultraviolet light. This study led to important steps in understanding the quantum nature of light and electrons and influenced the forming of concepts in wave particle duality.

Albert Einstein was born as a Jewish-German. Although Hitler was collecting all of the Jewish population, he kept all the smart ones for his own use in scientific situations. The United States captured Einstein and brought him to America to save the world from Germany making the atomic bomb. America didn't keep him as a prisoner because Einstein wanted to escape from Germany because he knew what Germany was doing was wrong.
