Textbook Question
Chapter S4, Problem 20EAP
Decide whether the statement makes sense (or is clearly true) or does not make sense (or is dearly false). Explain clearly; not all of these have definitive answers, so your explanation is more important than your chosen answer.
20. The exclusion principle describes the cases in which the uncertainty principle is excluded from being true.
