到了十九世紀(jì),用已經(jīng)產(chǎn)生的定律和法則,幾乎可以解釋一切現(xiàn)象,用發(fā)明的單位度量衡基本可以衡量自然界一切事物,似乎這世界上的科學(xué)就要發(fā)展的差不多了~~~

8 EINSTEIN'S UNIVERSE

As the 19th century drew to a close, [---1---]: electricity, magnetism, gases, optics, acoustics, kinetics, and [-2-] mechanics, [-3-], [-4-]. They had discovered the X ray, the cathode ray, the electron, and radioactivity, invented the ohm, the watt, the Kelvin, the joule, the amp, and the little erg.

If a thing could be oscillated, accelerated, perturbed, distilled, combined, weighed, or made gaseous they had done it, [---5---]: the Electromagnetic Field Theory of Light, Richter's Law of Reciprocal Proportions, Charles's Law of Gases, the Law of Combining Volumes, the Zeroth Law, the Valence Concept, the Laws of Mass Actions, [-6-]. The whole world clanged and chuffed with the machinery and instruments that their ingenuity had produced. [---7---]



scientists could reflect with satisfaction that they had pinned down most of the mysteries of the physical world statistical to name just a few all had fallen into order before them and in the process produced a body of universal laws so weighty and majestic that we still tend to write them out in capitals and others beyond counting Many wise people believed that there was nothing much left for science to do.
第三部 一個(gè)新時(shí)代的黎明 物理學(xué)家就是以原子的方式來(lái)考慮原子的人。 ——無(wú)名氏 第八章 愛(ài)因斯坦的宇宙 隨著19世紀(jì)漸漸遠(yuǎn)去,科學(xué)家們可以滿(mǎn)意地回想,他們已經(jīng)解開(kāi)物理學(xué)的大部分謎團(tuán)。我們略舉數(shù)例:電學(xué)、磁學(xué)、氣體學(xué)、光學(xué)、聲學(xué)、動(dòng)力學(xué)及統(tǒng)計(jì)力學(xué),都已經(jīng)在他們的面前俯首稱(chēng)臣。他們已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了X射線、陰極射線、電子和放射現(xiàn)象,發(fā)明了計(jì)量單位歐姆、瓦特、開(kāi)爾文、焦耳、安培和小小的爾格。   凡是能被振蕩的,能被加速的,能被干擾的,能被蒸餾的,能被化合的,能被稱(chēng)質(zhì)量的,或能被變成氣體的,他們都做到了;在此過(guò)程中,他們提出了一大堆普遍定律。這些定律非常重要,非常神氣,直到今天我們還往往以大寫(xiě)來(lái)書(shū)寫(xiě):"光的電磁場(chǎng)理論"、"里氏互比定律"、"查理氣體定律"、"體積結(jié)合定律"、"第零定律"、"原子價(jià)概念"、"質(zhì)量作用定律"等等,多得數(shù)也數(shù)不清。整個(gè)世界丁丁當(dāng)當(dāng)、喀嚓喀嚓地回響著他們發(fā)明創(chuàng)造出來(lái)的機(jī)器和儀器的聲音。許多聰明人認(rèn)為,科學(xué)家們已經(jīng)沒(méi)有多少事可干了。
