Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle states that we cannot simultaneously measure both the position and momentum of an object bett
er than a certain accuracy. This limitation is not a consequence of imperfect technology, but is a fundamental law. It applies to all objects -- photons, electrons, baseballs, etc.. A highly monochromatic, continuous beam of laser light of wavelength 470 nm passes through an electro-optic shutter. The shutter opens and closes in a time interval of Δt = 90 ps . After passing through the shutter to what uncertainty, Δx, have the photons been localized?
For this specific problem, the photons have been localized to
D<span>x = </span>0.027m
uncertainty. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your
query about and it will be able to help you, and if you’d like, feel free to
ask another question.
In a direct current, the electric charge, or current, only flows in one direction. In an alternating current, the electric charge changes periodically.
If they were farther apart they would be able to slip by through which means that it can go by faster. If the atoms where closer together then yes they would be able to go by slower.
