'''Quantum mechanics''' is the branch of [[physics]] that describes fundamental sub[[atom]]ic behavior.<ref>The quantum in quantum mechanics (QM) is [[Planck's constant]]. Its units are angular (or rotational) momentum. If the value of this constant were much larger, then a human being might be able to perceive the impact of the constant by pulling the string to spin up a very rigid toy gyroscope. They would feel tugs at the gyro acquired more units of the constant. They could then set the gyro down in its frame and watch the rate of spin reduce due to friction in steps, rather than smoothly, and then finally abruptly snap down to a resting state. There are many non-intuitive implications of such a quantization. Perhaps the most immediate implication of the constant is the discrete nature of the first electron orbital of the hydrogen atom. As one proceeds to higher orbitals, non-intuitive non-spherical three-dimensional harmonic patterns emerge and these dominate in the next-higher-level structure of matter. An important example for humans is p-orbitals of the carbon atom that implement the carbon chains of the macro-molecules that implement all known forms of life. There are many other non-intuitive implications of QM. QM has gone through several distinct mathematical formulations. The implications of QM that are well-understood are considered by most scientists to be laws of nature.</ref>
The basic principle of quantum mechanics is that there is an [[uncertainty]] in the location of a subatomic particle until it is observed. This insight is essential for understanding certain concepts that explains why the [[classical physicsSecond Law of Thermodynamics]] cannot explainis always true, such as and why everyone ages. Quantum mechanics explains the discrete nature of small-scale interactions, [[wave-particle duality]], the [[uncertainty principle]], and [[quantum entanglement]]. Quantum mechanics forms the basis for our understanding of many phenomena, including [[chemical reaction]]s and [[radioactive decay]], and is used by all [[computer]]s and electronic devices today. In addition, quantum mechanics No other theory explains why the [[Second Law of Thermodynamics]] is always true. Quantum mechanics may also help explain the foundation of the aging process that affects all lifethis.
'''''The order created by [[God]] is on a foundation of [[uncertainty]]'''''. The [[Book of Genesis]] explains that the world was an abyss of [[chaos]] at the moment of [[creation]]. Quantum mechanics is predicted in several additional respects by the [[Biblical scientific foreknowledge#Quantum mechanics|Biblical scientific foreknowledge]].
