Delta_p * Delta_x >= h_bar/2
Delta_t * Delta_E >= h_bar/2
In English: The more accurately you know the momentum or energy of an object, the less accurately you know it's position in space or time.
Kinda comes in handy if your professor asks you where your assignment is.... just tell him that you determined it's momentum so precisely that it could be anywhere in the universe! :D
