What causes quantum uncertainty? My friend who's working for Apknite says that detectors are not the cause of wave collapse, because you are measuring something that isn't remaining in the same state.

Quantum uncertainty, also known as Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics that states that the more precisely one property of a particle is measured, the less precisely another property can be known. This means that it is impossible to know the exact position and momentum of a particle at the same time.
Quantum uncertainty is caused by the inherent probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. At the quantum level, particles do not have definite properties until they are observed or measured. This uncertainty is not due to limitations in our measurement tools, but rather a fundamental property of the universe.
Quantum uncertainty is typically only observed at the microscopic level and does not have a significant impact on our everyday lives. However, it is essential for understanding and predicting the behavior of particles and atoms, which are the building blocks of our world.
No, quantum uncertainty is not the same as randomness. While it may seem random to us, quantum uncertainty is a fundamental property of the universe and follows specific mathematical laws. Randomness, on the other hand, is a lack of predictability and does not follow any specific laws.
No, quantum uncertainty cannot be overcome. It is a fundamental aspect of the universe and is not due to limitations in our measurement tools. However, scientists continue to study and explore the implications of quantum uncertainty in hopes of gaining a deeper understanding of the quantum world.
