It has been a good nerdy morning! Apart from one hour of less sleep, everything else seems good so far! So on with beautiful songs , multiple cups of tea , lovely weather and I can go on...
I came across the "Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle".
"In quantum mechanics, the uncertainty principle, also known as Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, is any of a variety of mathematical inequalities asserting a fundamental limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties of a particle, known as complementary variables, such as position x and momentum p, can be known." - Taken from Wikipedia.
So what it means is it is impossible to know the position and the momentum of a particle at any given time. One can either know the momentum with higher accuracy or the location but not both.
What peaks my interest in this theorem is the concept of stillness related to it. You can either be still and be at a place or have a momentum to change the situation.. It is very difficult to have both..
If one wants to change the situations , momentum is needed... What a profound statement! Sometimes it just makes so much sense..
I want to leave this quantum mechanics law open for your interpretation..
