Double Slit Experiment and Quantum Entanglement - Challenging Newton’s Laws of Physics
Listen now
Description
In this episode, Tanvi dives into the counterintuitive world of quantum mechanics, where Newton's classical laws don't quite hold up. We explore how subatomic particles like photons behave as both particles and waves, defying determinism with the Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle. The double slit experiment demonstrates superposition, showcasing that particles can be in multiple states at once. This hints at the spooky connection of quantum entanglement, where one particle is inexplicably linked to another, regardless of distance. Get ready to have your mind blown by the weird and wonderful world of the subatomic!
