Question #2
Which of the following scientists formulated the 'Uncertainty Principle', stating that exact position and momentum of an electron cannot be simultaneously known?
A. Erwin Schrodinger
B. Max Planck
C. Werner Heisenberg
D. Niels Bohr

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Werner Heisenberg, a German theoretical physicist, published his famous Uncertainty Principle in 1927. The principle dictates a fundamental limit to precision at the quantum level: the more precisely the position of a particle (like an electron) is determined, the less precisely its momentum can be known, and vice versa. Mathematically, delta_x * delta_p >= h/(4pi).
