Calculate the uncertainty in the velocity of an electron of the uncertainty in its position is of the order of `1 Å`

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the uncertainty in the velocity of an electron given the uncertainty in its position, we will use Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Given Data The uncertainty in position (Δx) is given as 1 Å (Angstrom). We need to convert this to meters for our calculations. - 1 Å = \(1 \times 10^{-10}\) m ### Step 2: Write Down Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states: ...
