Uncertainty Relation

The uncertainty principle, a fundamental idea in quantum physics, states that there’s a limit to how precisely we can know certain pairs of properties of tiny particles—like a particle's exact position and momentum—at the same time. The more accurately we measure one, the less accurately we can know the other. This isn’t due to measurement imperfections but is inherent in nature itself. It highlights that on a microscopic scale, the universe is fundamentally unpredictable in some aspects, emphasizing the probabilistic nature of quantum phenomena.
