AI Generated Solution

To explain why the velocity of a moving electron becomes completely uncertain when the uncertainty in its position is equal to its de Broglie wavelength, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Given Information**: We are given that the uncertainty in the position of the electron (Δx) is equal to its de Broglie wavelength (λ). Therefore, we can write: \[ Δx = λ ...
