The effect of uncertainty principle is significant only for motion of microscopic particles and is negligible for the macroscopic particles. Justify the statement with the help of a suitable example.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The energy of photon is sufficient to disturb a subatomic particle so that there is uncertainty in the measurement of position and momentum of the subatomic particle. However, the energy is insufficient to disturb a macroscopic object
