1. Answers must be in short essay form (no less than three full paragraphs, or 500-600 words).
2. Try to keep a logical track in your explanations: Start with a short but clear reference to the background of the topic, then explain the topic as clear as you can, and finally, specify its importance/influence. In this final section, do not employ general expressions such as the discovery of X had a profound influence on Y, or many fields in physics benefited from the invention of X. You have to explicitly mention the results.
3. Each prompt contains a few sub-questions. You have to answer ALL questions asked in the prompt.
