    what Albert Einstein has declared, but some scientists seemed to not understand what he was saying. Albert Einstein gave scientists the ability to know that atoms and molecules exist through Brownian motion. Albert was one who experimented the photoelectric effect in which he established that light has both a wave and a particle. Light particles were called quanta that had a certain amount of energy that release electrons from metals. Albert proved that whatever speed we are moving at it…

    Introduction: The ability of substances within a solution to absorb light is a wonderful phenomenon as it aids in processes such as determining the concentration of proteins. The way that a solution absorbs light is due to the photoelectric effect. The way the photoelectric effect works is that when light comes in contact with the sample, the photons of light will react with its electrons. As the light travels through the solution, "a photon of light may interact with an electron ... [where]…

    Routing out the Rote Physicists have one of the best jobs in the entire industry of science: they boast a low unemployment rate of 4.5% (Shaugnessy 1); and their median employment salary is $106,840 (19-2012 Physicists 1) which is more than twice the national average (Social Security 1). That could all change if the next generation loses interest in physics. Although physicists have been directly linked to the discovery or invention of " the transistor, the laser, splitting the atom, TV and…
