ABOUT 2004 200 Sk Ján Andrej Segner – 300. výročí narození
Jan Andrej Segner (4. 10. 1704 - 5. 10. 1777), a physician, physicist, teacher and inventor, and a native of Bratislava, was one of the most important scientists and engineers of the 18th century.
He became known as the inventor of the co-called Segner Wheel, which was set into rotation by the reactive force of a stream of water flowing from bent pipes. The wheel was perfected by his contemporary, Leonard Euler. This invention led to the construction of water turbines, and, later on, rockets. Also remarkable are Segner's works dealing with the shapes of drops of water under the influence of forces in the air, a treatise on the convex and concave surfaces of liquids and forces coming into effect therein, as well as his discoveries in optics and astronomy. He was a successful teacher at the universities of Jena, Gttingen and Halle. His textbooks on mathematics and physics were among the most sought after and several editions were published.
Description of the coin
Obverse:
Segner's important invention - the Segner wheel - is depicted on the obverse in the middle of the coin inside a rectangular frame. The name of the state SLOVENSKA REPUBLIKA is in the legend near the top edge of the coin divided by the national coat of arms. The year of mint, 2004, is found below it.
