Answer
In 1921, Albert Einstein received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. Instead of keeping the prize money for himself, Einstein selflessly transferred the majority of it to his ex-wife, Mileva Marić. This generous act demonstrated his recognition of Marić's contributions to his scientific work and highlighted his commitment to supporting her and their two sons.
