Also referred to as the 'uncertainty' principle, it is a principle in quantum mechanics holding that increasing the accuracy of measurement of one observable quantity increases the uncertainty with which another conjugate quantity may be known.

Who discovered that electron paths cannot be predicted?
Erwin Schrodinger and Werner Heisenburg
What is cascading principle?
If you mean the cascade principle; that is a principle connected to evolution in Cellbiology.
What rule or principle states that no two electrons in the same orbital can have the same spin?
This is the Pauli exclusion principle. Wolfgang Pauli was a Jewish physicist, Nobel prize laureate.
What is necessary to accurately and completely describe the motion of an object?
To completely describe the motion of an object you will need to know (1) the object's position in space and time, (2) the objects velocity, including the direction of travel, and (3) the object's acceleration, including the direction of acceleration. However, the Heisenburg Uncertainty principle states that the more accurately you measure object's position, the less information you will have about its velocity, and vica versa. The more accurately you measure an object's velocity, the less information you will have about its position.
How does the paradox from schrodinger cat relate to heisenburg uncertainty principle?
It relates to uncertainty as the box is always closed so you can never be certain if the cat was alive or dead as the radioactivity has a 50% chance of activating the Geiger counter so you can never be sure if the cat was dead or not without opening the box which is what uncertainty is about, measurement disturbs occurrences so nothing is certain. If there was a way of seeing the cat without 'measuring' its state then we would see a mixture of all the cat's states at once which is what quantum mechanics is partially about.
What is the Warren-Heisenburg Uncertainty Principle?
noob valencia
The particles in matter are in what at all times?
motion... if they weren't they would violate Heisenburg's uncertainty principle.
Which scientist proposed that electrons travel in orbits called shells?
Heisenburg
Who discovered electrons paths cannot be predicticed?
Erwin Schrodinger and Werner Heisenburg
Who discovered that electron paths cannot be predicted?
Erwin Schrodinger and Werner Heisenburg
States that is imposible to know both the velocity and the position of a particle at the same time?
The heisenberg uncertainty principle is what you are thinking of. However, the relation you asked about does not exist. Most formalisms claim it as (uncertainty of position)(uncertainty of momentum) >= hbar/2. There is a somewhat more obscure and less useful relation (uncertainty of time)(uncertainty of energy) >= hbar/2. But in this relation the term of uncertainty of time is not so straightforward (but it does have an interesting meaning).
How properites change bet nano to micro?
Heisenburg's Uncertainty Principle.. go read it. Essentially at the nanoscale quantum mechanics play a much larger role in interactions then at the microscale. The best example of this is in nanoscale transistors where electrons will tunnel from one side of an insulator to the other spontaneously as it's probability cloud crosses this boundery.
Why do atoms don't stop?
According to classical physics atoms would only stop moving at 0K, absolute zero. But this temperature is impossible to reach. According to quantum physics Heisenburg's uncertainty principle says that the momentum and position of a particle cannot both be known exactly. But if atoms stopped moving both would be knowable exactly, so it is impossible for atoms to stop moving.
Which scientist developed the idea that electrons exist in specific regions at various distances from the nucleus?
Neils Bohr put forward this picture of the atom.
What would happen if someone solved unified theory?
That person would not only win the Nobel Prize in Physics, but would go down in history with the likes of Heisenburg and Feynman.
What are the basic principle of work management?
Principle of Risk Variation. Principle of Cost of Capital. Principle of Equity Position. Principle of Maturity of Payment.
What is a sentence with principle?
"a man of principle" "the principle of jet propulsion"
