Could you explain some of the theories of quantum mechanics?

Quantum mechanics is a branch of physics that describes how tiny particles like atoms and electrons interact with each other and with light and other forms of energy. It is a complex and counterintuitive field of study that has led to many of the most revolutionary discoveries of modern science. The two main theories of quantum mechanics are Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle and the Copenhagen Interpretation, both of which describe the behavior of subatomic particles and their interactions with energy. The Uncertainty Principle states that the position and momentum of a particle cannot be predicted with absolute accuracy and precision, and instead it is only possible to provide a probability distribution for the particle. The Copenhagen Interpretation, based on the work of Niels Bohr, explains how a particle behaves when it interacts with an observer. It states that a particle exists in all possible states (or superposition) until it is observed, and then it collapses into a single state.
