The more general uncertainty principle, beyond quantum
The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is just one specific example of a much more general, relatable, non-quantum phenomenon. Apply to work at one of my ...
==========
You've probably heard of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle from quantum mechanics that the more you know about a particles position the less certain you can be sure of its momentum and vice-versa My goal here is for you to come away from this video feeling like this is utterly reasonable It'll take some time But I think you'll agree that digging deep is well worth it You see the uncertainty principle is actually one specific example of a much more general trade-off that shows up in a lot of everyday totally non-quantum circumstances involving waves The plan here is to see what this means in the context of sound waves which should feel reasonable, and then Doppler radar which should again feel reasonable and a little bit closer to the quantum case and Then for particles, which if...
