Quantum mechanics describes the microscopic properties of nature in a regime where classical mechanics no longer applies. It explains phenomena such as the wave-particle duality, quantization of energy, and the uncertainty principle and is generally used in single-body systems. Use the quantum-field-theory tag for the theory of many-body quantum-mechanical systems.

Are there any experimental tests of non-locality / Bell inequalities that do not rely on spin?
Usually experimental Bell tests are performed using photon polarization. However, experiments have also been devised to test Bell inequalities using so-called "time-bin" entanglement. Essentially, the …

Uncertainty in position and kinetic energy
You are on the right track. Pushing one more step to the final answer may leave you disappointed: $\sigma_x \sigma_K$ can equal zero! To see this, I find it more helpful to think just in terms of $x$ …

How does electron spin change instantaneously without violating inertia principle?
Your intuition about inertia is essentially correct. The spin state of an electron does not change instantly. If the electron is in the spin-up state then the z-component of its angular momentum is $\ …
