Answer 1

Hint:The one who invented the atomic research in India was Indian. The atomic research in India was invented in the last century. Isaac Newton had no research contribution in atomic physics.

Complete answer:
To answer this question, let us verify every given option step by step.
Shah Jahan: As we know, Shah Jahan was the ruler and not a physicist or inventor. He built the infamous Taj Mahal in Agra. Therefore, the option B is incorrect.
Newton: We know that Isaac Newton discovered the laws of gravitation. His inventions include Newtonian telescope, reflecting telescopes and some calculus. He did not invent the atomic research in India and never been to India in his span of life. Therefore, the option C is incorrect.
Einstein: We know that Albert Einstein formulated theory of relativity, special theory of relativity. He also discovered the famous photoelectric effect and was awarded by the Nobel Prize. He did not invent atomic research in India. Therefore, the option D is also incorrect.
Homi J Bhabha: We know that Homi J Bhabha was a great Indian born nuclear physicist and inventor. He had contributed to quantum theory and cosmic radiation. He was first chairman of The Atomic Energy Commission of India and was known as the father of Indian nuclear program.

So, the correct answer is option A.

Note: Homi J Bhabha with the compliance of Indian government built a research centre in India known to be Bhabha Atomic Research Centre. The nuclear physicist and inventor Vikram Sarabhai also helped to develop the nuclear program in India but he is not the inventor of the atomic research centre in India.
