in the sense of Einstein, and would then say "Everything is relative" we would mean that everything is under our control, we have a mathematic formular for it, it is not that it is just fluid!C. Heisenberg and the Principle of UncertainityEinstein later tried to develop another theory to explain Quantum Mechanics. Quantum Mechanics is concerned with the behaviour of small particles like the Electrons, Protons and Neutrons. These are the basic builting blocks of all matter. Again there were some strange phenomena observed which required the development of a new view of reality.The first of these was the question if light was a wave or a particle.A wave is something like what is happening when you throw a stone into a waters. Waves emerge. If there is more than one of these waves at the same time they will interfere with each other. Waves need a medium - here water - in which they can function.A particle is like something concrete. To be concrete like a stone or a bullet. A particle does not cause a wave and does not build up interferences with another, except when it directly hits some other particle.Think of it as two stones. They wont bother each other unless one his the other.There was a dispute going on if light is working like a particle or like a wave. Until 1921 it was commonly held that light is a wave in a medium which was unknown and was commonly called the ether.Thats the water for light.Einstein proposed in 1905 that light could also behave like a participle and called it a light-quantum.He found that if you "shoot" light at a electrically charged plate it would knock out electrons. This could only be done by particles not by waves.Things got even worse when it was discovered that light could behave sometimes like a wave and sometimes like a particle. Light would switch from one kind of behaviour to the other, according what the scientist wanted to detect. Would the scientist in an experiement attempt to localize a particle (...
