Is there any significance of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in our daily life?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In our daily life, we deal with objects of ordinary size. So the uncertainties in their position and momentum are very small as compared to the size and momentum of the object respectively. So, such uncertainties may be neglected. Thus, uncertainty principle has no significance in our daily life.
