One of the striking features of QM is the prediction that even if we cool a vibrating object to absolute zero, it will still be "moving" due to zero-point fluctuations. As we saw earlier, one easy way to remember how big are these fluctuations is to apply the equipartition theorem but replace $\frac{1}{2}kT$ with $\frac{1}{2}E_0 = \frac{1}{4}\hbar\omega$:
