see heisenbergs principle states that it is impossible tp determine the position and momentum or velocity of a particle like electron simultaneously
explanation>>>
to determine the exact position of the electron you will have to use light of the wavelength of dimensions of electrons ....
...........like for measuring length of a thin wire you cannot use ur meter scale ..you need one of its dimensions,,,
so if you use waves of such short dimensions to determine its position..ofcourse it has a lot of energy due to short wavelength..
..this high energy by collision will be transferred to the electron increasing its momentum or collision ...
and so we will not be able to determine ite velocity
