The Term "Chaos" in the Physics world refers to

  1. The issue of whether its possible to make the accurate long term predictions about the systemic behaviour

  2. The extreme behaviour of the system depending on the initial conditions

  3. Quantum Phenomena where nothing about the states of the elementary particles can be predicted

  4. None of these

  5. Both A and B

E Correct answer
Explanation

In physics, 'Chaos' refers to both: (A) the challenge of making accurate long-term predictions due to sensitivity to initial conditions, and (B) systems exhibiting extreme behavior depending on initial conditions. Quantum phenomena (C) is unrelated to classical chaos theory, which deals with deterministic nonlinear dynamics, not quantum uncertainty.
