Albert Einstein word list, defined
- RELATIVITY /ˌrɛləˈtɪvəti/ · noun
- The quality of being relative or dependent on a particular frame of reference, point of view, or set of conditions. In physics, the term refers especially to Einstein’s theories describing space, time, and gravitation in relation to the observer and motion. Related: relativism, variability, perspectivism, context-dependence.
- PHOTON /ˈfoʊtɒn/ · noun
- A photon is the smallest discrete quantity of electromagnetic radiation, regarded in quantum physics as a particle that carries light or other electromagnetic energy. Related: light quantum, quantum of electromagnetic radiation.
- QUANTUM /ˈkwɒntəm/ · noun and adjective
- As a noun, a quantum is a discrete, indivisible unit of a physical quantity, especially the smallest possible amount of energy or other measurable property. As an adjective, it means relating to quantum theory, quantum mechanics, or phenomena governed by quantum physics. Related: subatomic, microscopic, atomic.
- PHOTOELECTRIC /ˌfoʊtoʊɪˈlektrɪk/ · adjective
- Relating to the photoelectric effect, in which light transfers energy to a material and causes electrons to be emitted from it.
- COSMOLOGY /kɒzˈmɒlədʒi/ (UK), /kɑːzˈmɑːlədʒi/ (US) · noun
- The scientific study of the origin, evolution, and large-scale structure of the universe. It also refers to a particular theory or account of the nature of the cosmos, such as those found in philosophy or mythology. Related: cosmogony, cosmography, astrophysics, astronomy.
- UNIFIED /juːˈnaɪfɪd/ · adjective and verb
- Unified means combined or brought into agreement as a single coherent whole. As a verb, it means to combine separate parts, groups, or systems so that they work together effectively. Related: united, integrated, coordinated, consolidated.
- FIELD /fiːld/ · noun (also verb)
- An area of open land, especially one used for growing crops or grazing animals; more broadly, a sphere of activity, interest, or study, and in physics a region of space in which a particular force is exerted. Related: meadow, pasture, paddock, domain.
- THEORY /ˈθɪəri/ · noun
- A set of ideas or principles that explains how something works or why something happens. In academic contexts, a theory is an organized, evidence-based framework that may be supported by numerous observations and tested through further investigation. Related: hypothesis, explanation, framework, principle.
- GRAVITY /ˈɡrævəti/ · noun
- Gravity is the force that attracts bodies with mass toward one another; on Earth, it produces the familiar downward acceleration of falling objects. By extension, it refers to seriousness, importance, dignity, or solemn weight. Related: gravitation, seriousness, importance, weight.
- LIGHT /laɪt/ · noun, verb, adjective, adverb
- Light is the natural or artificial illumination that makes objects visible, especially the radiant energy perceived by the eye. It can also mean a source of illumination, such as a lamp or flame, and describes something that is not heavy, is pale or easily illuminated, or is not serious. Related: illumination, brightness, glow, pale.
