Albert Einstein for Kids - By CrashCourse
Transcript
| 00:0-1 | If you think about brains and being smart , you | |
| 00:02 | probably think of Albert Einstein , we are going to | |
| 00:06 | investigate the life of Albert Einstein to see how he | |
| 00:09 | became one of the most famous scientists in the history | |
| 00:13 | of our world . Albert Einstein was born in Germany | |
| 00:18 | in 1879 . His parents had no idea there son | |
| 00:22 | Albert would change the way we look at the universe | |
| 00:28 | . He didn't speak until he was four years old | |
| 00:31 | , later than most Children . Even after he started | |
| 00:34 | speaking , he would practice the sentences in his mind | |
| 00:37 | to make sure he got them right . But one | |
| 00:39 | thing that did come quickly and naturally to him was | |
| 00:43 | math . He was a math whiz . He began | |
| 00:47 | teaching himself high level math , impressing his family tutor | |
| 00:52 | . He was also fascinated with physics , a type | |
| 00:55 | of science that deals with matter and energy . Physics | |
| 00:59 | and math would be his obsession throughout his life . | |
| 01:04 | He went on to enroll in a mathematics and physics | |
| 01:07 | program to get his teaching diploma . He wanted to | |
| 01:10 | be a teacher , sharing his love for math and | |
| 01:13 | physics with all of the wonderful students he could , | |
| 01:16 | but after graduating he couldn't find a teaching job and | |
| 01:19 | instead worked in a patent office while working in the | |
| 01:23 | patent office . He still lived out his passion writing | |
| 01:27 | papers and making discoveries that he would publish . He | |
| 01:31 | finally became noticed in the scientific world , releasing some | |
| 01:36 | incredible papers that changed the way we understood our world | |
| 01:41 | , space and time . He became a professor , | |
| 01:47 | was a sought after speaker and became famous around the | |
| 01:51 | world . He would go on to win a Nobel | |
| 01:54 | Peace Prize , one of the most special awards anyone | |
| 01:58 | can receive . And he traveled to many countries sharing | |
| 02:01 | not only his knowledge of physics and math , but | |
| 02:03 | his heart about other subjects . To Albert Einstein was | |
| 02:08 | brilliant using math and physics to help us better understand | |
| 02:12 | our universe . Now things are going to get interesting | |
| 02:18 | . Okay we're going to show you two discoveries made | |
| 02:21 | by Albert Einstein . We are going to make it | |
| 02:24 | so fun and simple . Even Mr Whiskers could understand | |
| 02:28 | it . Just stare blankly into space if you agree | |
| 02:30 | . Mr Whiskers , Mr Whiskers he always does that | |
| 02:35 | . One of Albert Einstein's biggest discoveries was this equation | |
| 02:40 | , you might have heard of it . E . | |
| 02:42 | Equals M . C . Squared the E . Stands | |
| 02:48 | for energy , the M . Stands for mass and | |
| 02:52 | the C . Stands for the speed of light . | |
| 02:55 | It means an object has the same amount of energy | |
| 02:59 | as it has mass and that energy can move at | |
| 03:03 | the speed of light superfast . So Mr whiskers you | |
| 03:07 | have the same amount of energy as you have mass | |
| 03:10 | and that energy can move at the speed of light | |
| 03:13 | which you're just lying around . Go use your energy | |
| 03:17 | you have the same amount of energy as you do | |
| 03:21 | mass . Go play . It means if you know | |
| 03:26 | the mass of an object , you know the energy | |
| 03:29 | right ? It is the same amount . So if | |
| 03:35 | anyone ever says E equals M . C . Squared | |
| 03:38 | , just say to them , I know what that | |
| 03:40 | is about . It's about energy and mass . Then | |
| 03:43 | give them a high five and say homeschool pop three | |
| 03:45 | times they might run away . Though another discovery made | |
| 03:50 | by Albert Einstein is the theory of general relativity . | |
| 03:54 | We are going to make it super simple for you | |
| 03:57 | . Mr Whiskers . Okay . And for the kids | |
| 03:59 | , general relativity explains how gravity works . Large objects | |
| 04:06 | like the earth . Bend space . The space pressing | |
| 04:10 | down on us is gravity in our solar system . | |
| 04:13 | The Sun causes the stretchy space to curve , causing | |
| 04:18 | the Earth to rotate around the sun . Just like | |
| 04:21 | space can be curvy , so can time , time | |
| 04:24 | and space are relative mr whiskers . They depend on | |
| 04:28 | things like the massive objects around it . Time and | |
| 04:32 | space are bendy and bendy . Space is how gravity | |
| 04:36 | really works . E . Equals M . C . | |
| 04:38 | Squared is all about energy and mass and general relativity | |
| 04:42 | explains how gravity works . Who ? Physics and math | |
| 04:49 | . Thanks Einstein . Thank you . Thank you . | |
| 04:54 | Now you know a little more about Albert Einstein's life | |
| 04:58 | and two of his discoveries , How crazy would it | |
| 05:01 | be if you shared this knowledge with a friend ? | |
| 05:03 | It would be like what ? How do you even | |
| 05:05 | know that ? How do you even know that math | |
| 05:09 | and physics are so cool though ? And so are | |
