Uncertainty in momentum

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that it is impossible to determine both the position and the momentum of an electron inside an atom simultaneously. Mathematically,the product of uncertainties in position and momentum is greater than or equal to a constant $\frac{h}{4\pi}$. The equation is given by $\Delta x 	imes \Delta p \ge \frac{h}{4\pi}$,where: $\Delta x$ = Uncertainty in position $\Delta p$ = Uncertainty in momentum $h$ = Planck's constant

In Heisenberg's uncertainty equation $\Delta x \times \Delta p \ge \frac{h}{4\pi}$,$\Delta p$ stands for:
