Uncertain principle so uncertain they CHANGED Heisenberg's story
around.
#1. 1st it was the more you know an INDIVIDUAL particle's postion,
the less you know it's momentum.....but now they call it an error and
due to it's more wavelike nature then an individual particle, INSTEAD:
---------------------------------
Now it's:
#2. ...ahhhh we know need a longer period of time = time average
value
#3. and ....ahhhh we need to measure in groups instead of
individual = group average value.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_principle
quote for #1:
"The uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics is sometimes
*****erroneously***** explained by claiming that the measurement of
position necessarily disturbs a particle's momentum, and vice
versa.....Indeed, Heisenberg himself "may" have initially offered
explanations which suggested this view." ("may" my ass....why they're
"uncertain" if did or did not...hmmm)
quote for #2:
"It is meaningless to ask about the frequency spectrum at a single
moment in time, because the measure of frequency is the measure of a
repetition recurring over a period of time. Indeed, in order for a
signal to have a relatively well-defined frequency, it must persist
for a long period of time, and conversely, a signal that occurs at a
relatively well-defined moment in time (i.e., of short duration) will
necessarily encompass a broad frequency band."
quote for #3:
"The physicist never attempts to measure the position and momentum of
a ****single**** particle but measures them for a different set of N
particles from the same initial state.....Consequently, the
uncertainty principle should be considered an intrinsic
******smearing****** of ****statistical**** information instead of a
limitation on measuring equipment.
