Why did Albert Einstein play the violin?
Sir Albert Einstein's mother was the one who tried to get him to play the violin. I play the violin and I am very good at Science, the two go together in intelligence and consentration and theory. His mother thought he was mentally retarded so she tried to get him to play the violin to share a normal hobby as alot of children played the violin in the 19th century in Germany. Albert enjoyed playing Bach and Mozart as a child, I am not sure he went far in it as an adult, but he did have a club as an adolesence in which he would play violin to his friends. So this is why Albert Enstein played the violin.
***I would like to correct some information that was listed here. Albert Einstein did indeed play the violin. However, it was the school teachers who told Einstein's parents that he was "too stupid to learn". Albert's mother then had him begin violin lessons. He did continue to play up to and throughout his adult years. Below is an excellent link about not only Einstein but also the affects of music and the brain.

What did the mini albert einsteins sing on night at the musuem battle of the smithsonian?
"That's the way, uh-huh, uh-huh, I like it, uh-huh, uh-huh"
What does each variable mean in e equals mc2?
'e' = the energy equivalent of a sample of mass
'm' = the mass of the sample of mass
'c' = the speed of light
Einstein proposed a formula describing the relationship between mass and energy -
it is e=mc2
where e is energy, m is mass and c is the speed of light, so the amount of energy (in juoles) is equal to the mass (in Kilograms) multiplied by the speed of light (in metres per second), all multiplied again by the speed of light.
Why didn't Einstein work on the Manhattan Project?
Einstein was a life-long pacifist.
The 700-page book "Einstein on Peace" is the most comprehensive record of everything he wrote, during his life, about Peace. It was published posthumously, by his family foundation, to counter the uninformed claims, that he gave up his pacifist convictions.
Einstein never worked on the Manhattan Project. He didn't believe that energy would be released from the atom, during his life-time. When early experiments showed that this might actually happen, Leo Szilard asked Einstein to sign a letter to FDR, telling him about this possibility.
After World War II, Einstein continued his pacifist views, and became a crusader for nuclear arms control, and peace-making through international negotiations.
Why do people move in or out of bern Switzerland?

No. E = mc2 is not the same as E = (mc)2 which is what the question suggests.
Also, if you know E, why do you need to square anything to "get" E?
This is a Ditloid.
The answer is 535 Members of Congress.
Who won the nobelpeace prize this year?
Barrack Obama won.

ahead of josef fritzel
The famous equation E=MC2 was devised by one Albert Einstein. The equation means that the energy released when you destroy something is equal to the mass of that something times the speed of light squared, which is quite a lot.
