Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle

[Lizard]

Ah see...until you clicked on it to read this post it had the *potential* to be the most subtly witty and amazing post EVER!...of couse it isn't...now you've clicked on it it's lost that potential and, even as you read this now, you discover that it is merely yet another post from me of complete and utter shite...HUZZAH!

 

And on that note...nighty night

that post was actually pretty profound, probably. nnite

so heisenberg gets pulled over. the cop says "do you have any idea how fast you were going?". heisenberg replies "no. but i know exactly where i am."

Crikey! So Theoretical Quantum Physics and Wave Mechanics *can* be fun then eh...relatively! *chuckle*

Ever got your particle in a box?

Ah, well now that all depends on whether you're referring to my 1 Dimensional Particle or my Free Particle? Also what's the quantum state of the box? If it's my 1-D Particle then the answer is yes...the walls of infinite potential energy keep the little fella bouncing away in there quite happily, as for the free particle...well it's *potentially* in there I suppose but to be perfectly honest the full explanation of the free particle theory makes my brain hurt

 

Or was that just a cleverly siezed opportunity to say "box"...hee hee hee
