The uncertainty in the position of an electron $(\Delta x)$ is approximately $100 \ pm$. Calculate the uncertainty in momentum $(\Delta p)$ of the electron in $kg \ m \ s^{-1}$. $[h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s]$

  • A
    $1.104 \times 10^{-22}$
  • B
    $0.527 \times 10^{-27}$
  • C
    $0.527 \times 10^{-24}$
  • D
    $1.055 \times 10^{-24}$

The position of both an electron and a helium atom is known within $1.0 \, nm$ and the momentum of the electron is known within $50 \times 10^{-26} \, kg \, m \, s^{-1}$. The minimum uncertainty in the measurement of the momentum of the helium atom is

$A$ ball weighing $10 \, g$ is moving with a velocity of $90 \, ms^{-1}$. If the uncertainty in its velocity is $5 \, \%$,then the uncertainty in its position is ....... $\times 10^{-33} \, m$. (Rounded off to the nearest integer) [Given : $h = 6.63 \times 10^{-34} \, Js$]

What is the uncertainty product $\Delta v \cdot \Delta x$ for a particle of mass $1 \ mg$? What does this imply?

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

The uncertainties in the velocities of particles $A$ and $B$ are $0.05 \, m/s$ and $0.02 \, m/s$,respectively. If the mass of particle $B$ is five times that of particle $A$,then the ratio of the uncertainties in their positions $\left( \frac{\Delta x_A}{\Delta x_B} \right)$ is equal to:
