If uncertainty in position and momentum of an electron are equal,then uncertainty in its velocity is

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle can be applied to :

The uncertainty in the position and velocity of a particle are $10^{-10} \ m$ and $5.27 \times 10^{-24} \ ms^{-1}$ respectively. The mass of the particle is ............. $kg$. $(h = 6.625 \times 10^{-34} \ JS)$

$x$ and $y$ are two moving particles. The uncertainty in the momentum of $x$ is half the uncertainty in the momentum of $y$. If the uncertainty in the position of particle $x$ is $0.05 \ \mathring{A}$,then the uncertainty in the position of particle $y$ is = .......
