In an atom,an electron is moving with a speed of $600 \, m/s$ with an accuracy of $0.005 \%$. The certainty with which the position of the electron can be located is $(h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \, kg \, m^2 s^{-1}, m_e = 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, kg)$:

  • A
    $5.10 \times 10^{-3} \, m$
  • B
    $1.92 \times 10^{-3} \, m$
  • C
    $3.84 \times 10^{-3} \, m$
  • D
    $1.52 \times 10^{-4} \, m$
