Heisenberg uncertainty principle has no significance in our every day life. Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

This is because it has significance only for microscopic particles whose position and velocity change on being hit by photons but in everyday life we do not come across microscopic bodies but we come across macroscopic bodies.
