Description

This lecture explores the Heisenberg uncertainty principle by imagining a universe with a hypothetical Planck constant, leading to calculations of uncertainty in the position of a tennis ball. By applying Heisenberg's relation between position and momentum uncertainties, the estimation results in a significant difference in the ball's position uncertainty, highlighting the impact of the Planck constant on quantum-scale phenomena.
