The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the mass of a particle given the uncertainties in position and velocity, we will use the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the Given Values - Uncertainty in position (Δx) = 0.2 mm = 0.2 × 10^(-3) m = 0.0002 m - Uncertainty in velocity (Δv) = 10.54 × 10^(-27) m/s - Planck's constant (h) = 6.626 × 10^(-34) Js ### Step 2: Write the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle Formula The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states: \[ \Delta x \cdot \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4\pi} \] where Δp is the uncertainty in momentum. Since momentum (p) is given by \( p = mv \), we can express the uncertainty in momentum as: \[ \Delta p = m \cdot \Delta v \] Thus, the equation becomes: \[ \Delta x \cdot m \cdot \Delta v \geq \frac{h}{4\pi} \] ### Step 3: Rearrange the Formula to Solve for Mass (m) Rearranging the formula to solve for mass (m): \[ m \geq \frac{h}{4\pi \Delta x \cdot \Delta v} \] ### Step 4: Substitute the Values into the Formula Now, substituting the known values into the rearranged formula: \[ m \geq \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{4 \cdot \pi \cdot 0.0002 \cdot 10.54 \times 10^{-27}} \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Denominator Calculating the denominator: \[ 4 \cdot \pi \cdot 0.0002 \cdot 10.54 \times 10^{-27} \approx 4 \cdot 3.14 \cdot 0.0002 \cdot 10.54 \times 10^{-27} \] \[ \approx 0.0008 \cdot 10.54 \times 10^{-27} \approx 8.432 \times 10^{-30} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Mass (m) Now substituting back into the mass equation: \[ m \geq \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{8.432 \times 10^{-30}} \approx 7.85 \times 10^{-5} \text{ kg} \] ### Step 7: Convert to Grams (if necessary) To convert kg to grams: \[ m \approx 7.85 \times 10^{-5} \text{ kg} \times 1000 \approx 0.0785 \text{ g} \] ### Final Answer The mass of the particle is approximately **7.85 × 10^(-5) kg** or **0.0785 g**. ---
