What action causes an electron's "probability wave" to collapse into a single location?

How does the motion of a classical object (like a bowling ball) compare to the motion of a quantum object (like an electron) when passing through two slits?

Bohr's theory of quantum mechanics created conflict with what famous scientist?

Where does the phrase "quantum leap" come from?

Uncle Steve pulls on a rope attached to a trolley with a force of 75N. The rope makes and angle of 45 with the horizontal. Compute the effective force tending to pull the trolley along the horizontal, compute the force tending to lift the trolley

a boy pulls a rope attatched to a sled with a force of 80.0 N. The

rope makes an angle of 30 degrees with the ground. compute the effective value of the pull tending to move the sled. a) along the ground b)lifting it vertcally

A rock is thrown horizontally from the top of a cliff 88 m high, with a horizontal speed of 25 m/s. How far from the base of the cliff does the rock land?

a) Suppose, I have normalized the wave function at some point of time. The wave function evolves with time according to time dependent Schrodinger equation. How do I know that the wave function remains normalized after some time? [Hint: Show that d dt int - infty ^ infty | psi(x,t)|^ 2 dx=0] (b) Show that d(p)/dt =(- partial V/partial x ) i.e.,expectation values follow Newton's law.
