Heisenberg - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle in Elementary Quantum Mechanics

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, proposed by German scientist Werner Heisenberg in 1927, states the impossibility of simultaneously and accurately determining the position and momentum of microscopic particles like electrons. This principle challenges classical concepts of definite position and m
