Einstein's theories of special and general relativity as well as the photoelectric-effect theory have helped spawn many useful applications.

The theory of special relativity is also vital in the construction of the particle accelerators that are used nowadays to probe the microscopic world of sub-atomic particles.

Explanation / Answer

Here we go:

Einstein's famous theories of Special and General Relativity and the Photoelectric Effect have helped spawn many useful applications. The Specia Relativity limits the speed of motion to the speed of light and time dialation while the General  Relativity shows that time and gravity are interrelated. For instance, both  Special Relativity and General Relativity are needed in the computations made by the GPS system, in order for it to be sufficiently accurate (Comment: setelites do not compute they only provide a signal read by GPS receivers). From the combined effect of these theories, it became known that clocks inside satellites run 38 microseconds faster per day. Thus, engineers could now account for this in the clocks on earth. All GPS measurements will be off by 11 km daily, if relativity knowledge is not used.  or try this->  Such minute drift in time measurements of could acount for significant spacial drifts making measurements unusable. These spacial drifts could easially exceed 11 km.   ( comment: I'm not sure about 11km; however  since d=St  then  distance = 300,000,000 x 38E-6 = 11,400m. I gues you were corrct :-) ) The theory of special relativity is also vital in the construction of the particle accelerators that are used nowadays today to probe the microscopic (Please do not use microscopic ; microscopis is 1E-6 the word of atoms and subatomic particles is 1E-9 to 1E-13 and maybe smaller :-)   ) world of sub-atomic particles. Particle accelerators are important for the arts, the other sciences, medicine and high-tech industries. In addition, from the theory of special relativity, Einstein's famous equation, E=mc^2 , has many practical applications. It allows for the calculation of the amounts of energy produced in fission reactors which, among other beneficial uses such as are mainly used to generateing electricity and reserch, can be used to produce medical pharmaceuticals directly benefiting us. E=mc^2 also helps in keeping the waste local when making energy. (this not clear)  Similar to the theory of special relativity, Einstein's photoelectric- effect theory has many useful everyday applications. The most obvious modern use for  of  this effect, are solar phovoltaic panels which convert the Sun's light into electricity. Apart from that, automatic garage door openers have a safety feature that depends on the beam of light and  photoelectric effect detector to prevent door from closing upon encountering an obstruction. The photoelectric effect is used in a plethora of other devices including analog and digital cameras.

That should do it.
