    of all time and the father of modern physics. Sir Isaac Newton who produced the Newtonian mechanics influenced Einstein; this led to Einstein’s development of the special theory of relativity. This theory was later expanded to gravitational fields. Einstein is best known for his mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc2 (1)‚ this has been dubbed “the worlds most famous equation”(1). He received the Nobel Prize in Physics “for his services to theoretical physics‚ and especially for his discovery of
