Albert Einstein’s Theories

INTRODUCTION

(Attention getter): Do you ever wonder how the universe works? How time isn't linear? how the planets revolve around the sun?

(Specific purpose statement): Albert Einstein did, from the moment he received his geometry book which he called his holy geometry book, he was hooked. He went on to explain these phenomenons in a series of theories, theory of special relativity, theory of general relativity, photoelectric effect, and unified field theory.

(Audience relevency): His studies will be the explanation of gravitational waves, the orbit of mercury, and gravitational lensing.

(Credibility Statement): His ideas would fascinate me so much that I would find myself binge watching documentaries of his life and of his studies. My interests in Einstein would lead me to find more important physicists and cosmologists such as stephen hawking which would spark my love for science even more.

(Preview of main pointsCentral Idea): Today I will be informing you about Einstein's findings and explain its importance in this world.

(Connective: First of Einstein's two theories is his theory of special relativity )

BODY

Theory of Special Relativity

E=mc^2

it proved that energy and mass are different forms of the same thing

If mass is somehow totally converted into energy, it also shows how much energy would be inside that mas

Mass increases with speed

Atomic energy

it explains the atomic energy created by nuclear power plants

it explains the atomic energy created by atomic bomb

(Transition: now that I have explained Einstein's theory of special relativity, I will then explain his theory of general relativity)

Theory of general relativity

it explains that what we perceive as the force of gravity in fact arises from the curvature of space and time (space-time)

Gravitational Waves

ripples in space-time created by violent events

LIGO proved it with the collision of 2 black holes

Orbit of Mercury

It is shifting over time because of the curvature of space-time

Gravitational Lensing

an object in space with great mass will bend light around it

Wormholes

the bending of space-time to allow a passage which could be followed for long journeys through the universe

(Connective:Einstein's theories has done so much and will be the basis of our understanding of the universe )

CONCLUSION

(Signpost): in conclusion...

(Review main points): Einstein's theories, theory of special relativity and theory of general relativity has contributed so much to the scientific world. It answered many questions that physicist and astronomers have been asking.

(Capstone statement): einstein's studies has changed the way we think of the universe and will continue to do so as we prove many of his theories with experiments

Questionnaire summary

Many of my classmates like science and many of them know what einstein has done. so in order to catch their attention, I will explain it thoroughly and break down the meaning while giving examples. many of them believe that einstein's discovery is important, which is good, so i would like to explain to them how it is important and what it has done for us. there are a few who know a lot about science maybe even more than I do but i will do my best to satisfy their needs of a good presentation on it. these few know a lot about his theories. And we got like 2 or 3 who don't like science at all and dont care for it.
