      Inam Ul Haq I don't think Niels Bohr was Jewish. I've red his biography and got a sense that he was an atheist. Also I must note Einstein's belief that the quantum world was pre-determined, was due to him believing in God, while Bohr's theory predicted it was randomness, meaning nothing is pre-deterministic hence thre is no higher power.

    Uncertainty principle is like taking a photo:
    You can (with short exposure) see the object clearly where it is, but you have no idea whether it was moving.
    Or you can (with long exposure) see a smudge on the photo, the longer it is (given the same exposure), the faster it was moving, but you can't see the object distinctly in any position.
    I know the analogy is quite far from the real quantum stuff of Heisenberg's principle, but it's close enough for the laymen we are

      We can apply this to climate science, also. If anyone says he knows (even roughly) what the average Earth temp will be in a decade, he is either lying, or a fool. We can go further, if he says he knowsall about the climate system, or even enough to make a prediction, or even on Earth's climate sensitivity (to CO2), or the end result of feedbacks.
      Any yet...climate scientists and physicists can't go a month without making this stuff up. And they get away with it because of the political climate.

      Laiba IQBAL It’s something Einstein said as a reaction to the nature of Quantum mechanics which states that you cannot know exactly where something is, only a probability that it is there. This was against Einstein’s intuition, but Bohr and others eventually proved it was correct. While Einstein was right about a great many things, he was wrong about QM. I like to think however, that were he alive today, he would be quietly pleased that someone proved him wrong.

For me, it takes a force that is energy to enforce quantization and constants in systems. It takes a regulator. If you cannot find the enforcer/regulator of the quanta system and constants, then you don't have a grasp of the system or there is no quanta or constant. 1800s physical constants are not natural things, they are placeholders to equivalence equations and define behaviors with improper and incomplete equations.

    Scientists like Einstein and Planck never fully accepted it, their view was that the theory could be valid, but only in a deterministic equation, or that it only explained a certain part of the theory of everything. And there are deterministic views of quantum theory like the multi-verse one.

    Watching this series after Oppenheimer movie is such a treat. One of the best ever made.

    It is wonderful that Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr were such good friends. One argued for G-d having the Name Elohim, a rational cause and effect G-d. The other argued for Y-H-W-H that at any particular moment in history, water could run uphill..

    1:24 It truly is amazing how many pedestrians will cross a street without looking, as if they don't see a car coming, it won't hit them. Look for it the next time you're driving to see I'm correct.

    The reason that Heisenberg's uncertainty principle is applied only on microscopic objects is that the energy of photon is insufficient to change the position and velocity of macroscopic objects on striking

    Einstein had hard time hanging up with these ideas of Heisenberg and neils bohr
    Quantam entanglement and quantum theory was like a joke to him
    He even didn't approve the theory
    but now we know now that Einstein was wrong in his thoughts about quantum theory and Heisenberg was right

      Unfortunately there was no book for Einstein to read. Quantum mechanics was at its basics in1927 it only came into full after Schrodinger explained his theory on how electrons would not follow the rules of the physical macroscopic world. Imagine yourself his entering into the realm of quantum mechanics (u can't do thought experiments or follow the rules of physics which govern physical world since the dawn of newton). It's quite and eccentric theory that quantum mechanics

      Yes, but it would be an alternate reality and not this spacetime frame.

    Heisenberg's uncertainty principle led us to view the quantum world as one that favors probability over certainty. This also led to a "battle of titans": For Bohr, we lack the language to understand the quantum world, but for Einstein, God does not play dice with the universe.

    Okay so if we don’t see particles , they won’t exist : my question is how are the collisions between particles happening around us and creating atmospheric pressure if we don’t see it ?. Collisions are happening that means they exist , chemical reactions are happening that means particles exist if we see it or not , chemical reactions were happening when humans didn’t exist , when Big Bang happened many things happened and we were nit there to witness it , how does particles don’t exist then ? Unless there is something else involved other than particles if this theory is proved. 1:39

      it's not true that they don't exist. they do not have "local realism" so they don't have a specific value for spin etc. as they travel. but they exist, in the theory they exist
