According to the uncertainty principle, a particle such as an electron
A) must have uncertainties in position and velocity that remain smaller than a particular prescribed value. B) has a precise position and a precise velocity, but the observer is unable to determine them. C) does not have a precise position or a precise velocity. D) can have arbitrarily small simultaneous uncertainties in both position and velocity, although neither uncertainty can be zero. E) is entirely made of sausage.
