Part 6/9:
The Symbolism of the Automobile
A vivid metaphor emerges as they walk, with Einstein portraying an imaginary automobile as a metaphor for particles in motion. Bohr counters that while particles may behave unpredictably at the quantum level, everyday objects like cars operate under familiar physical laws. This analogy encapsulates the heart of their contention: what applies to large, observable entities cannot necessarily be presumed to apply to the particles that quantum mechanics studies.
