Ever tried to measure something so tiny that even light changes it? That’s what scientists face when studying atoms and electrons. Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle shows us there are limits to what we can know. It’s not about being wrong — it’s about how the universe really works at its smallest level.
This article explores the strange but true concept of wave-particle duality—where light and matter behave as both particles and waves. Learn how experiments like the double-slit experiment and the photoelectric effect revealed this dual nature, and find out how it affects everything from lasers to solar panels.
Quantum physics explores how tiny particles behave in surprising ways. From electrons being in two places at once to particles connected across space, this article explains everything in simple, clear steps. Learn how the quantum world is different from our everyday experiences, and why that matters.
