Does anyone know any good links to information about particle physics or quantum mechanics?
I am familiar with single variable calculus and understand some multivariable calculus. I am looking for a site that is easily comprehensible but also uses basic calculus.

If you're looking to learn it, I suggest you pick up a textbook, possibly the one by Griffiths. To be honest though, I don't think you have the proper background just yet. Quantum mechanics is heavy in both linear algebra and differential equations. However if you are intent on learning it, here is a neat site that gives all sorts of info about and doesn't taut the math too heavily in front of you.

Along with that, here is another great site that has all sorts of physics simulations, particularly those related to quantum mechanics.

What a team of horse dung! somewhat! How does Heisenberg uncertainty thought (which style of states that when you pinpoint an electron as to the place that's you may now no longer tell the place it is going and in case you understand the place it is going you may no longer tell the place that's.) have something to do with the universe being undetermined and random? The uncertainty isn't that it is random or undetermined the uncertainty is which you will no longer understand the the place that's and the place it is going on the comparable time, yet those are the two parts which would be had at separate cases. how are you able to logically bounce from electrons to the universe? If what you're saying is authentic and electrons are random and for this reason the universe is then that randomness turns right into a development and not something interior the universe could make any experience. like the improbabilitypersistent on Zaphod's spaceship interior the Hitchhikers instruction manual if issues are incredibly random then whales could be appearing in mid air and crashing to the earth. additionally your Schrodinger equation that's a quantum thought of how a photon (gentle waves) can function as a particle and a as a wave on the comparable time. alongside with this concept you have over a dozen greater that are contradictory to Schrodinger's and yet answer the comparable difficulty. So how does that disprove there's a God? It does not clarify the place the photons got here from interior the 1st place, it does not clarify the existence of self, will, morals, supernatural, and so on. somewhat throwing up this vomit is incredibly undesirable. purely because of the fact maximum Christians do no longer understand quantum physics, and in case you published this you of course do no longer the two.

I think the Stanford lectures YouTube are great. You really need linear algebra through. Have a look at the links below. There is a complete series on particles and a series on quantum mechanics. And other stuff.
