Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle

This fundamental principle of quantum mechanics states that you cannot simultaneously know the exact position and the exact momentum of a particle. The more precisely you know one, the less precisely you know the other. This calculator finds the minimum possible uncertainty for one property given the uncertainty of the other.
