hello every one,i m an engineering students..these days,after reading about Mr.Heisenberg,i m really intrusted in quantum mechanics and its physics..i want to start from very basics..can anyone please guide me..
Quantum mechanics is a branch of physics that studies the behavior and interactions of particles on a subatomic level, such as atoms, electrons, and photons.
Quantum mechanics has led to many groundbreaking discoveries and technologies, including transistors, lasers, and MRI machines. It also provides a deeper understanding of the fundamental laws of nature.
The key principles of quantum mechanics include superposition, entanglement, and uncertainty. Superposition states that particles can exist in multiple states simultaneously, entanglement states that particles can be connected and influence each other regardless of distance, and uncertainty states that it is impossible to know both the position and momentum of a particle with absolute certainty.
Classical mechanics is based on Newton's laws of motion and describes the behavior of larger, visible objects. Quantum mechanics, on the other hand, describes the behavior of particles on a subatomic level and follows different principles, such as superposition and uncertainty.
Quantum mechanics has applications in various fields, including computing, cryptography, and telecommunications. It also plays a crucial role in understanding and developing new materials, such as superconductors and semiconductors.
