- Trans: If you pinpoint the position of
a specific particle, then you won't be
able to precisely measure its
momentum. And if you precisely
measure a particles momentum,
then you cannot know its exact
position
- Also, if we try to measure the
momentum of the wave, this
uncertainty shows up with how
accurately we can measure it - classical
mechanics fails at this point.

- "Yes! physics has given up. We do not know how
to predict what would happen in a given
circumstance, and we believe now that it is
impossible - that the only thing that can be
predicted is the probability of different events.
