Question

What is Heisenberg uncertainity principle?

Answer 1

Position and momentum relation.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Heisenberg's uncertainty principle was given by Werner Karl Heisenberg in the year 1927.
• This principle gives the relation to the position of a particle and the momentum of a particle.
• The uncertainty principle states that the position of a particle and momentum of a particle cannot be measured at the same moment.
• This uncertainty is due to high precision.

The formula for uncertainty principle:

ΔxΔp ≥
`(h)/(4\pi )`

Here, Δx denotes uncertainiy in position and Δp denotes uncertainty in momentum.

• Smaller is the Δx larger is the Δp that means the more accurately uncertainty in position is measured there is less accuracy in measuring uncertainty in momentum.
