To find the uncertainty in the measurement of the velocity of an electron within a distance of \(0.1 \, \text{Å}\), we can use Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. Let's go through the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Convert the distance from Ångströms to meters Given that the uncertainty in position (\(\Delta x\)) is \(0.1 \, \text{Å}\): \[ \Delta x = 0.1 \, \text{Å} = 0.1 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} = 1.0 \times 10^{-11} \, \text{m} \] ...
