Actually, you CAN be in two places at once. Four places, really. The "Four Corners" in mid-western United States consisting of Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah. you could literally be on your hands and knees and be in all of those states at one time!

If a particle can be in a superposition of two places at once wouldn't that defy the law of conservation of energy?
Yes. That's why only photons (no rest mass) can be in two places at once.
Can quantum physics be in two places at the same time?
To add to the following answer, the wave formulation of quantum mechanics states that the expectation value of the position operator yields a position probability distribution which says, "this is the area where the particle is." Which is typically over all space. Once the position of the particle is measured, the wave function corresponding to the particle then instantly collapses and the particle is only at that position and therefore cannot be anywhere else. That fact then leads to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, which is a whole other topic for discussion. absolutely, in some cases a single object can even be in infinitely many places at the same time. Look into Feynmann diagrams and path integrals.-----This is an incorrect interpretation of Feynmann diagrams, which actually say the particle is everywhere until it's position is measured. Once it is measured it cannot be anywhere else. No single particle can be simultaneously measured to be in two separate locations. That violates the principles of QM. No. Quantum mechanics gives the probability of an object's location- so it can have some small possibility of being at infinitely many places at the same time but never definitely at more than one place at the same time. This may be a fine distinction but it restricts a large number of ridiculous phenomena.
When a flashlight is turned on where does the energy transformation takes places?
The electric energy will be transfered to light energy and heat energy once flashlight turn on.
The apparent movement of an object across a background when observed from two different places is called an?
parallex
What refers to the amount of space between two points or places?
That's called the distance.

What happens when you have two places to be at once?
You have to decide which place to go.
Can lightning strike two places at once?
That's possible.
What is a bilocation?
A bilocation is the ability to be, or the state of being, in two places at once.
Why cant you be at two places at the same time?
You can Straddle a state border :D that's the only exception to being two places at once that I can think of

Why in a new moon a eclipse cannot happen?
because the moon can't be i two places at once.
In a walk to remember what was on jamie's wish list?
get a tattoo, be in two places at once, witness a miracle
How can you be in two places at once When you're not anywhere at all?
well you can be in your room in the bed so that's like two places at ounce. Or you con go in the middle of nowhere and stand on the boarder of Mexico and America and be in 2 places at ounce.
Do Sam have a twin sister?
no they filmed her being in two places at once at different times and then put it together
How do you be in two places at once?
your mind can be elsewere (daydreaming) and your body is sitting in a classroom with a teacher talkn. Donate a kidney=).
