  4. Early Life • Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879, in Ulm Germany. • His parents were, Pauline and Herman Einstein. • The family business was the manufacture of electric parts. In 1894, the family moved to Italy because their business failed. • Einstein studied Judaism at his home and played the violin. • He taught himself Euclidian Geometry when he was just 12 years old.

  5. Early Life…(Continued) • He studied physics. • In 1895 Einstein failed an exam that would have let him enter to the Swiss Polytechnic, a top technical university. • After failing his exam he went to the Swiss town of Aarau to finish high school. • Albert graduated as a physics and mathematics teacher in 1900.

  6. Accomplishments • Albert Einstein was known as the best scientist of the 20th century. • He made the general Theory of Relativity. • Albert Einstein came up with the equation • This equation states that energy=mass times the speed of light squared. • Einstein’s equation explains why the sun is able to keep radiating energy for millions and millions of years without “apparently” running out of fuel.

  7. Accomplishments...(continued) • In 1921,Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics, not for his theories of Relativity, but for his discovery of the law of Photoelectric effect.

  8. Later Life • Albert Einstein died on April 16, 1955, from a heart failure.
