英文释义
名词 n.
-
A formulation or realization that captures a profound thought in simple terms.
— "Beauty isn't about looking young." OK, so it's not E=mc² or even [Isaac] Newton's apple. But coming as it does from a top cosmetics company, it does represent an attitude readjustment that makes Saul's change of heart on the road to Damascus look like a passing fancy.
- Used other than figuratively or idiomatically: E = mc²: energy equals mass times the speed of light squared.
词源
After the formula of mass–energy equivalence, an important principle discovered by the German-born theoretical physicist Albert Einstein (1879–1955).
The formula entered the popular consciousness after it was included in the opening pages of the Smyth Report (1945), a widely read document that explained the United States’ nuclear weapons program to the public for the first time. Its appearance alongside a portrait of the (already well known) Einstein on a Time magazine cover the following year consolidated its fame.
