Quantum Mechanics

Physics theory describing matter and energy at atomic scale.

📋Detailed Description

A fundamental theory in physics that describes the physical properties of matter and energy at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. It differs significantly from classical physics in that energy, momentum, angular momentum, and other quantities are restricted to discrete values.

💡Practical Example

The behavior of electrons in an atom follows quantum mechanical principles.
