He refused to believe black holes could exist. His conceit cost him his marriage and when he finally won the Nobel prize, which wasn't for relativity, he gave the purse to his ex-wife who raised his children as a single mother.

Isaac Newton's theory of relativity?

Isaac Newton did not propose a theory of relativity. His work mainly focused on classical mechanics and the laws of motion. The theory of relativity was later developed by Albert Einstein in the early 20th century, with the special theory of relativity in 1905 and the general theory of relativity in 1915.


What is the imbention of Albert Einstein?

Albert Einstein is not credited with creating any inventions. He did create many different theories in the field of physics. He wrote the theory of special relativity and the general theory of relativity.


What problem did Einstein solve?

Einstein is famously known for developing the theory of relativity, which revolutionized our understanding of gravity, space, and time. This theory helped resolve discrepancies between classical physics and observed phenomena, such as the motion of Mercury and the bending of light around massive objects.


Did Einstein write any book?

Yes.


What president was born in Germany but you became a citizen of the US in 1904 you are best known for your theory of relativity?

Albert Einstein is famous for his original and earth-shaking theory of Relativity . He was born in Ulm, Germany. He became a US citizen in 1940. I do not know what group, if any, that he was ever president of.


What flaw did Einstein make in his theory of relativity?

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread... I am not about to suggest that I know a flaw in any theory, let alone those of Einstein. They don't call him an 'Einstein' for nothin'. But scientists do point out that Einstein's equations apparently break down at what we would call today a singularity. It seems too that for this and other reasons, Quantum Theory may one day supplant Relativity. It was once thought that Relativity and Quantum Theory could not co-exist; there are now some possibilities that they can be reconciled. Whether or not the theories of Relativity are proven wrong, they were central to an amazing burst of insight on the part of many great scientists in the early decades of the 20th century.


What element did Albert Einstein discover?

Albert Einstein did not discover any elements. He is known for his groundbreaking work in physics, particularly his theory of relativity, which revolutionized our understanding of time, space, and gravity.


What are the contributions of Alexander Einstein?

There is no significant contribution of any person named Alexander Einstein recorded. However, Albert Einstein made major contributions in science including the theory of relativity which he got a Nobel prize for.


What is conspiracy theory about Einstein?

One conspiracy theory about Albert Einstein is the idea that he stole the theory of relativity from his first wife, Mileva Marić, who was also a physicist. However, there is no evidence to support this claim, and it is widely considered a baseless conspiracy theory.


Did Albert Einstein have the first theory about teleportation?

No, Albert Einstein did not have the first theory about teleportation. Teleportation is a concept more closely related to science fiction than to Einstein's work in theoretical physics. Einstein did contribute significantly to our understanding of space, time, and energy through his theories of general and special relativity.


How did Albert Einstein's theory of relativity change the law if conservation of energy?

I don't think the theory changed anything. In classical mechanics, energy is conserved; in the theory of relativity, energy is also conserved. Also note that there are two "theories of relativity"; you may want to clarify which one you are talking about. In any case, it is my understanding that energy is conserved in both cases.


Did albert Einstein ever go to jail?

Yes, Einstein did go to Jail in fact his wife put him in jail and was said, "He was a little bit too crazy."
