WHAT DOES UNCERTAINTY ACTUALLY MEAN?

 HEISENBERG'S UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE  

It becomes a bit perplexing and puzzling to know that if you are reduced into a quantum sized body then your position and momentum are not certain. If you are not aware of anything like this before then it surely puts your mind into the blank area where this statement raises numerous questions and some don't even agree with this.

But this statement is the foundation of the quantum theories which have remarkably and marvellously changed the entire world's thinking towards science.

It looks nonsensical to say that you are present everywhere in a probable region and your position is uncertain till someone measures it at a certain time. But it is true no matter what we think.

The statement says that we cannot know both the position and momentum of a subatomic particle simultaneously.

This theory says that the change in momentum times the change in position is always greater than or equal to planks constant times 1/4(pi).

This principle also holds true for conjugate pairs of physical quantities such as Energy and time and also angular momentum and angle.

This principle stands as the base for the whole quantum physics thus this fundamental theory is very important to understand the more complicated theories.

  1. Hey just read almost all the blogs.
    Some constructive critisism might help, there isn't any absolute new information apart from books which might help reader understanding better.
    The only thing different from books is that you have more emphasis on cherishing the topic rather explaining more .


    Try using more common words to make reader understand better since the title itself is "understanding physics"

    Try analogies to explain better

    Ik these are really complex topics that you have chosen
    And analogies may back fire.
    But since you have chosen these complex topics , there is not much credit in using bookish language since blogs are always read to understand in simple words.

    Please do consider sharing your views and what do you feel about the topic.

    I'd like to add few great words said by the legends and i think you knew them already.

    1.if you explain something to someone it ought to be so simple that a kid should be able to understand it.
    2. The reader should feel it so simple that he must be thinking that he could have written the theory himself.

    These are the golden rules you must consider while writing.

    As of now your blogs only have the points only to just know the theory. But you might know this already too that even a fool will know but the point is to understand.

    For your blogs to fall into light you must have some unique things to stand out.

    The topics you have chosen are too complex that even you might be lacking complete knowledge and might always back fire
    Consider explaining simple topics too.

    I don't think you fully understand the topics well enough to explain it to a kid like me.

    Incase you think what i have told is rubbish please consider reading again.

    Please ignore grammatical/language errors if any.

    Incase you are wondering who am i, This might be very tough for you find out . I randomly found your ig and read it.

    Wishing you goodluck and have a nice day :)
