Answer:

The uncertainty principle

Step-by-step explanation:

Essentially if you measure the momentum of the particle at a given point, then when you go to measure the position it has moved, thus you don't know the position. Vise versa if you measure the position you only capture a still frame of the particle and no information about it's momentum, which will have changed.
