In an atom, an electron is moving with a speed of ` 600 m//s` with an accuracy of ` 0.005%` . Certainty with which the position of the electron can be localized is :
` ( h = 6.6 xx 10^(-34) kg m^2 s^(-1)` ,
mass of electron ` (e_m) = 9. 1 xx10^(-31) kg)`.

A

`1.52xx10^(-4)m`

B

`5.1xx10^-3m`

C

`1.92xx10^(-3)m`

D

`3.84xx10^(-3)m`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Accuracy in velocity=0.005%
`Deltav=(600xx0.005)/(100)=0.03`
According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle,
`DeltaxmDeltav ge (h)/(4pi)`
`Deltax=(6.6xx10^(-34))/(4xx3.14xx9.1xx10^(-31)xx0.03)`
`=1.92xx10^(-3)m`.
