Does Quantum Mechanics Apply to Large Objects?

The video explores quantum mechanics through the double slit experiment, demonstrating wave propagation, interference patterns, and the concept of wave functions. It highlights how waves, whether light, water, or quantum, create interference patterns, and how the de Broglie wavelength relates to mass and wave behavior. The video concludes that while quantum mechanics can describe larger objects, it becomes complex and less practical.
