Understanding the Quantum World Episode 6, The Position-Momentum Uncertainty Relation Episode 6, The Position-Momentum Uncertainty Relation.

Streaming video - 2019

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle sets a fundamental limit on how much we can know about an object's position and momentum at the same time. Professor Carlson introduces this simple equation, showing how it explains why atoms have structure and come in the diverse forms of the periodic table of elements. Surprisingly, the stability of our everyday world rests on uncertainty at the quantum level.
