Einstein's
Theories:
Brownian motion.
Brownian motion.
¥Einstein showed how the macroscopic motion of an
object, located in a fluid or a gas, is effected by the microscopic motion of
the constituents of the medium.
¥Einstein's predictions for Brownian motion were in
excellent agreement with the observations and confirmed the statistical theory
of heat.
¥Another prediction of his theory was the so
called blackbody radiation.
