Hiesenberg.s uricertainty principle states that it is impossible to determine simultaneously the position and momentum of a particle. He considered the limits of how precisely we can measure properties of an `e^-` (or)other microscopic particles like electron. The more accurately we measure the momentum of a particle, less accurately we can determine its position.
If uncertainty in measurement of position and momentuin are equal calculate the uncertainty in velocity

A

`(Deltap)/(m)`

B

`(m)/(Delta p)`

C

`mDeltap`

D

`1/(m Delta p)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`Delta x= Delta p = sqrt((h)/(4pi)) and Delta v = (Deltap)/(m)`
