Calculate the product of uncertainties in the position and velocity of an electron of mass `9.1xx10^(-31)kg`, according to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to uncertainty principle, `Deltax*Deltap=(h)/(4pi)`
or, `Deltax*mDeltav=(h)/(4pi) or, Deltax*Deltav=(h)/(4pim)`
`=(6.626xx10^(-34)kg*m^(2)*s^(-1))/(4xx3.14xx9.11xx10^(-31)kg)=5.79xx10^(-5)m^(2)*s^(-1)`
