Description

Dive into 1935 and grapple with Einstein himself! In this episode, Tanvi tackles the "EPR Paradox," a thought experiment that challenged the very foundations of quantum mechanics. Imagine two entangled particles, linked across vast distances. Measure one, and its partner instantly flips its spin – but how? Einstein called it "spooky action at a distance," suggesting secrets hidden within the theory. Was he right? Does information truly travel faster than light? Buckle up for a cosmic chase as we dissect the paradox, explore "hidden variables," and ultimately witness the triumph of quantum entanglement, a phenomenon defying even Einstein's intuition. Are you ready to bend the universe's speed limit? Tune in and find out!

Tanvi is a 10 year old member of American Mensa who loves Quantum Physics. She teaches all about quantum physics in a fun and simple way. Quantum physics is the study of the smallest things in the universe, and it's one of the most fascinating and important branches of science. But it can also be very confusing, especially for kids. In this podcast, Tanvi explains complex concepts like entanglement, superposition, uncertainty principle and a lot more, in a way that anyone can understand. So whether you're a kid, a parent, or just someone curious about quantum physics, subscribe NOW!
