Question

The person who has been awarded the title of the Father of Physics of 20th century is
A. Madame curie
B. C V Raman
C. Neils Bohr
D. Albert Einstein

Answer 1

Hint: It will be easier to answer this question if you know what these great individuals were known for and what they contributed to the world of physics in the 20th century.

Complete answer:
Madame Curie, the physicist who died from exposure to radiation was known for her incredible and fascinating work in the field of radioactivity. She also contributed heavily to find the treatment of cancer and she also discovered radium and polonium.

C.V Raman was a great Indian Physicist who was awarded the Nobel prize in physics for his incredible work in discovering the Raman effect. The Raman effect generally says that when a beam of coloured light passes through a liquid, the fraction of light gets scattered and the scattered light is of a different wavelength and hence of a different colour.

Neils Bohr is another great individual who was known for his atomic model.Out of all the experts, it was Albert Einstein who was awarded the title of the father of physics of the 20th century because of his work on the kinetics of nature and the universe and apart from that, he also contributed heavily to the three laws of motion and gravity.

Thus, option D is correct.

Note: CV Raman is also a great figure and In India, people celebrate national science day in his memory. He changed the way the entire world saw light.He discovered that when light traverses a transparent material, some of the deflected light changes wavelength and amplitude.
