I just don't understand what Heisenberg meant by the statement that "It is impossible to determine both position and momentum of an electron simultaneously.If one quantity is known then the determination of the other quantity will become impossible." Now, it obvious that position of an object can not be determined if it is in motion or having a momentum because it is continuously changing its position. If it is at rest we can determine its position but not momentum since it has a zero velocity. Did he mean that electron never come to rest?
