The velocity of an electron of mass `9.1xx10^(-31)` kg moving round the nucleus in the Bohr orbit (diameter of the orbit is 1.058Ã…) is `2.2xx10^(-6)m` `sec^(-1)`. If momentum can be measured within the accuracy of 1%, then calculate uncertainty in position `(Deltax)` of the electron

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The mass m of an electron is 9.1 xx 10^(31)kg and the velocity v of an electron in the first Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom is 2.2 xx 10^(6)ms^(-1) . Assuming that the velocity is known within 10% (Deltav = 0.22 xx 10^(6)ms^(-1)) , calculate the uncertainty in the electron's position in a hydrogen atom. Strategy: According to Heisenberg's principle, the uncertainty in the postion (Deltax) of any moving particle multiplied by the uncertainity of momentum (Deltap_(x)) can never be less than h//4pi . In the given case, Delta v is known and we need to find Deltax .
